There is a bug in 'Update Index Information' that prevents any changes
EXCEPT modification date and modification text. Trying anything more
generates a duplication error message. In any case, the exact date of
invention is not an file that can be entered in that section.
	As to whether the date IS wrong for the redesigned variant, that is an
interesting question for which I would welcome the thoughts of a wider
range of readers. The use of 3 dimensions, theme, and basic choice of
pieces are the same, but applied in a hopefully easier-to-understand way.
Having been criticised so roundly and soundly for the T-shaped board,
Crocodile, and difficult Pawn rules I felt the need to, no, not invalidate
the comments but respect them and respond by removing these features. I
even included notes about it being changed to put comments in context.
	For the rest, yes, I would be delighted for an editor to find some way of
updating the 11 to 10, 222 to 264, and 3 (players) to 4.
