[1] What are the gnu.chess newsgroup and info-gnu-chess mailing list for?  How
  do I subscribe or unsubscribe?

The gnu.chess newsgroup is for the discussion of GNU Chess, XBoard, and other
related software.  It is not for general chess or computer chess discussion.
You won't be flamed if you post such messages here, but you will find more
information if you use rec.games.chess.  There is a rec.games.chess FAQ file
with a great deal of general chess information; see topic [10] below.

Please do not try to play or start chess games by posting messages to
gnu.chess.  That is not an appropriate use of this group.

The gnu.chess newsgroup is gatewayed bidirectionally with the mailing list
info-gnu-chess@prep.ai.mit.edu.  If you want to be added to or deleted from
this mailing list, send mail to info-gnu-chess-request@prep.ai.mit.edu, not to
the list (or newsgroup) itself.
