+GNU Backgammon (gnubg) is for playing and analysing backgammon positions,
+games and matches. It's based on a neural network. In the past twelve months
+it has made enormous progress. It currently plays at about the level of a
+championship flight tournament player. Depending on its parameters and its
+luck in recent games, it rates from around 1900 to 2000 on FIBS, the First
+Internet Backgammon Server -- at its strongest, it ranks in the top 5 of over
+6000 rated players there) and is gradually improving; it should be somewhat
+stronger than this when released. Since almost all of the CPU time required
+during supervised training is spent performing rollouts, and rollouts can
+easily be performed in parallel, it is hoped that users will be able to pool
+rollout results and collectively train it to a level stronger than any
+individual could obtain.
+
+You can also compete against recent versions of gnubg on FIBS; it plays
+there under the names gnu, mgnutest, mpgnu, mgnu_advanced, mgnu_expert,
+mgnu_WClass, ParlorBot and mgnu_zp.
+
+GNU Backgammon also playes on GamesGrid. A version of GNU Backgammon with no
+lookahead, 0-ply, plays with the nickname GGraccoon. GGraccoon is a very
+popular opponent among the members at GamesGrid. GGraccoon usually rates
+about 1900.
+
+You may play GNU Backgammon using the command line or a graphical interface
+(based on GTK+).

+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
+# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
+# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
+# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':'.
