I think what we basically need to develop is a dedicated piece of hardware to act as a computer chess tournament server. It should run software designed to timestamp and handshake with the other guis. I need a couple of weeks to think this through but I am sure (gut feeling)that a little box with a VIA-eden minicard in it running linux can do the trick. Maybe I'll make a few of them.
