[edit] Confirmation of existence

Could someone please confirm the main statement of this article, i.e. the position after 1.d4 Nf6 2.Nf3 g6 is called "East Indian Defence" ? I have looked on Google, in Gallagher's Beating Anti-King's Indians and in Golubev's Understanding the King's Indian but I have not find confirmation of that. Has someone a relevant source about this name ? SyG 18:50, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Here are a few links confirming it: [1] and [2] and [3]. Voorlandt 18:54, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the links Voorlandt! I will add one in the article as a reference. SyG 22:27, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
