2/1 Game Forcing Variations - - Alternative Approach

There is not just one version of a 2/1 Game Forcing bidding system.  There are a variety of conventional rebids that are additions to a fundamental 2/1 GF system, but there are also some fundamental response agreements that can be adjusted.  One of these is the length that we promise when we respond in a minor suit at the 2-level.  In the standard 2/1 system, a 2♥ response shows at least a 5-card suit, a 2♦ response shows at least a 4-card suit, and 2♣ usually shows a 4+card suit (occasionally it could be a 3-card suit).
