hi shlomi,
what you are doing here might be perceived as having a conflict of interest and/or doing self promotion.
you wrote a solver for black hole solitaire. then you create a wikipedia article about black hole solitaire, mentioning your name and your software in it, as well linking to your software. then you fill an unrelated mailing list with this topic and link to it. your first mail in this thread btw, the 30 page long mail, included links to your website(s) as well.
rupert.
