I don't know - it could be an interesting [dare I say educational]
exersize in artificial intellegence programming. 

I'm considering running something where peoples programs compete with
each other [like that show on BBC2 with loud-mouth from Top Gear, but
the idea has been around for ages]. I'm thinking of seeing how robots
written by CompSci people fair against those written by people for who
computers are not there main area of study. Could end a few common
aguements. And start a few new ones!

I know it's not relevant to this thread but while I'm here... does
anyone know of such an 'arena' program for Linux [I've got a simple DOS
one, from an old PCWorld cover disk, that I may play with]
