J=C3=A9r=C3=A9mie, is it your engine running behind playdiplomacy.com? If

somewhat relieved that there hasn't been an enormous duplication of
effort. I know you spent about 10 years working on yours.=20

DP Judge, like nJudge, requires convoy routes to be specified. It's a
fairly serious flaw in the shared ancestry of both programs that I think
should be addressed in nJudge 2.0 if such a creature is ever born. DP
Judge is even less likely than nJudge to get such a serious update to
the core code.=20

That is until there is a problem with the adjudication. The also care
little about security... until they think someone is cheating. You can
always fix a map. You can fix most security problems, although you may
have to flush the user database. When an adjudicator is broken, however,
it's broken for the life of the program. At least that's what it seems
like. :-/
Anyhow, look at jDip if you want to see some good maps and RealPolitik
if you want some maps to compare to good maps. ;-)=20
