However, for the ICGA board to lift the burden of proof it needs to look
at the
code, thus it's fair and just to ban a member for not providing the code
on
request.

What if you do not want to show your source code?

If we are to learn something from this ordeal I would say that ICGA should
ask
for source code for every attending program before the tournament begins,
e.g.
in a sealed envelope.

What if you do not want your source code to be seen, copied and imitated by
others?

I am not talking about me, I like sharing ideas, source code, etc.. but I
know many people do not like that, and it is understandable. So, I do not
think that they should not be able to enter a competition for that reason.
Also, what about commercial programs?
