I would agree with Tony. Any such material would be helpful in learning
more about Shogi.  Another option could be to conduct a round table
discussion on openings in an IRC, with  the more accomplished players on
the list leading the discussion. The minutes of such a  discussion could be
posted on SHOGI-L afterward for beginning players like myself to guide our
study, practice  and understanding of Shogi.
