While this has been successful in the past, the lack of written documentation presents problems for first-time tournament directors who find themselves without instructional resources.

The first, the AGA Swiss McMahon: Pairing Protocol Standards, describe how a Swiss McMahon tournament is to be paired in AGA events. The second document, AGA Swiss McMahon: Program Interface and Reporting Requirements, lays out minimal user interface standards for an AGA compliant pairing program.
The AGA is prepared to certify programs that meet the combined pairing and interface/reporting standards as ' AGA compliant' in a vendor-neutral fashion. Contact the AGA's for details on program certification. The definition of how to pair an AGA tournament according to the Swiss McMahon system. For programmers: interface standards for an AGA-compliant pairing program. For programmers: XML Schema for recording tournaments results.

Nice, polished app Probably the most polished Go app I've seen on Android - terrific user interface (though not yet fully optimized for tablets), and a solid range of options. It would be nice if future updates (to the pro version) could include some more teaching/coaching features, e.g. 1) the option to let the computer play a move for you, 2) a wider range of professional games and training problems, 3) some sort of statistical tracking of player performance over time, and 4) adaptive difficulty settings (with the app suggesting changes in handicap, computer strength, etc based on player performance).
