As I mentioned before, v1 is posted in the newsgroups.

According to http://ClassicChess.GooglePages.com/  there are two you might
be interested in.

One is Aug 5, 1987.  I don't think this was GNU Chess 1.0, though.  It might
be a pre-release.  It was sent to Mr. Marsland, probably for opinions.

Second is Jan 12, 1988.  I think this is GNU Chess v1.0 based on mentions of
it in old newsgroups postings.  I don't have the links that say it's v1, 
it's just what I remember.


As I mentioned before, the early GNU Chess programs were based on John
Stanback's program.  His original program is posted in the newsgroups (JSCP
on the website I mentioned.)  It's from March 10, 1987.

I was going through my own collection, and I see a newer version from May
26, 1987.  Somewhat in between the original and the Aug 5, 1987 one
mentioned above.  However, it's a printed copy.  (Both of these are public
domain, where as the others above are infected with the GPL.)


If you want any other version, you'll have to contact Mr. Cracraft and try
to talk him into contacting the gnu people and obtaining it from their
archive.  It's doubtful he'll do it.
