I've tried a few games each way, and I can verify that
lowering independent-density in the standard game back to what it was
before 2000 makes the game move much faster.  I wasn't clear to me
whether it helped the human or the AI (one way or the other).

It seemed pretty tedious with the high value for independent-density
(as things are in CVS).

The discussion is http://sources.redhat.com/ml/xconq7/2004/msg00980.html

So I propose to revert the patch mentioned there.

We also discussed the possibility of making either the higher density or 
the lower density into a variant on Standard.

I wouldn't object, but unless there is dissent to the idea that the
lower density is the better game, that should be the default (and the
basis for the other variants).
