Site Name
    Keywords: SL description

What's in a name? Why on earth is this site called Sensei's Library?

The idea is that eventually (in many years from now) SL will contain all Go wisdom available. (food for thought: think of the treasured archives of go houses, think of old wise man, think of "best of rgg" <- actually this is how it all started many moons ago)

So, just like in a library you will find a vast collection of information. (btw, I don't find libraries dull). And Sensei, well what's bad about a teacher ?-)

Actually, (Japanese literate may correct me here), I was under the impression that sensei has more of a meaning as 'the first of pupils' or 'he who leads' - I suppose it's the oriental way of making a title humble-sounding?

Hopefully, SL will become the font of much (all ?-) Go knowledge on the web...

I like the name. And the little cartoon is darn cute, too.

On a side note, a thinko (and lack of bookmarking) recently led me to type [ext] http://sensei.xmp.net. I was sidetracked there for a moment! Maybe a link to this page could be added there? I saw ArnoHollosi's name mentioned there so it should be a problem!

And while you (we as of now :-) are at it, how about senseislibrary and senseilibrary? Claiming space ahead of your opponent is what the game's all about, isn't?

MortenPahle: Hi Jan. Just to answer your last comments: as long as we stay within the domain xmp.net we are safe - everything is ours for the picking. Adding a general link to SL from other parts of the domain is a good idea.
