May main objection was annotating moves. It would be
good to find a solution to that (such as having an
option on Ludoteka.com to email the move record to a
designated person).

If there is still interest in an email tournament I
could help organize it. I was signed up before it
fizzled. To be honest, I was afraid I had somehow
missed it.

Cheers,

Lyman
