I'm very interested in a GNU chess database (like Chess Assistant
and the like). You asked where you could get games---there are tens of
thousands of games in PGN format (and others) on the chess ftp site.
I have many of the games. 
I'm also interested in helping you out with this program---I'm especially
interested in the analysis part (where you can examine lines and have
the program keep track of the move tree and your evaluations for you) and
position searching and the like. If you've done a lot of work already,
then you can give me a routine to write that has simple i/o. If you still
have some fundamental design work to do, I can help with that too.
As for the GNU'ing of your program, worry about that later. The procedure
is essentially to tack on the copyright file in the distribution with 
some small modifications (all clearly explained in the GNU docs).
