Briefly, I have already corresponded with GH and received his permission to
scan in the images of pieces and moves from his leaflets. Currently I have
Tori Shogi and Wa Shogi set up as URLs:

http://www.ed.ac.uk/~rjhare/tori-shogi/intro.html
http://www.ed.ac.uk/~rjhare/wa-shogi/intro.html

It is my intention (eventually) to set up a URL for Chu Shogi, but I intend to
stop at that point because the amount of work involved scanning in the images
of pieces and moves, and (most importantly) cleaning them up is quite large.
Personally, I would welcome someone setting up some of the other variants, but
I would recommend that you write to GH and ask for permission to use his
material before undertaking such an exercise.

Roger Hare.
