Hi All, I've switched the info-GNU-Chess list to closed, tightened up the anti-spam options, and made other changes aimed at making it work better with less effort on my part. Please note that my old wretched.demon.co.uk email address is now effectively dead. I will arrange another GPG key for signing GNU Chess releases, it will be signed by the old key. In the meantime you'll have to trust it is me, because I know the list administration password. Lurking Bug. There is a known bug in 5.07 GNU Chess, which has been lurking for a while. It was introduced in the Posix thread changes. The problem is that the program can give the last move of the previous game, as if it is a move in a new game, if a game is resigned or otherwise terminated abnormally. If anyone has already patched this - please let me know. I think it is severe enough to justify a new release once fixed. Simon Waters
