Subject: Wiel-Rebel - Frankly, I'm Disappointed With The Live Coverage.

Let me start by saying "Kudos to Ed" for organising this event. This is just the
kind of thing we all want to see, and I think most of us are grateful to Mr
Schroder for going ahead and setting up what should be a fantastic spectacle for
us all to watch.

Unfortunately, the "live coverage" has turned it from an exciting afternoon's
sport into a disappointment.

The following areas are in urgent need of improvement:

* updates are too infrequent. If the updates are going to be only once per hour,
couldn't we be told when the next one is?

* Updates regularly every 10 minutes would be even better

* An estimate of the clock times for the two players would add to the atmosphere

* How about a diagram of the latest position with every update

* tell us what the event is like in general

If these things could be accomplished by, say, next week, I'm sure that the
spectators would be very appreciative.
