I still do not understand why it cannot use any traditional protocol.
Arena does not support 10*8 but I think that a program can assume that it play
8*8 chess if it does not get different information.

You do not have to support winboard or UCI but I see no reason that it is
impossible to do it with one engine that can play both 8*8 and 10*8 chess
