It's early to enjoy a Spring breeze, but a Superaccept always gives a warm fuzzy feeling, even from a known quirky opener.
How do you rebid as East here according to GiB system?

I would most likely Blackwood. Is it available. Nothing to cue (unless KS) but you can always hope
Maybe 6NT - chance of missing 7
6 or 7 hearts.

Its clear 6 or 7 of something don't you think?

Will be interested to hear what others say. My goto 2/1 computer alternative reference is Q-plus which by itself found 7H but with me using transfer and blackwood stopped in 6H

If playing MPs convert all slams to NT

Old version of GIB invokes Blackwood every time and it's not close.

Pretty straightforward 3 - 4 - 4 continuation playing with humans of course, but GIB is crippled by system here.

I would settle for the old version at the old fee.
Paying for this rubbish is painful.

You might not be prepared to play with either when I eventually publish my lengthy blog post on how insanely broken GIB's bidding simulation logic is (or was back then, to be more precise, but unlikely to have changed) after months of experimenting with it. Not sure whether it'll be days or weeks away, but it'll be epic :)
