   Now that Apple!s user interface proceedings against Microsoft et al have
   been dropped, are we going to see Gnuchess 4 ported to the Mac?

The suit hasn't been dropped.  Apple asked that the suit be decided
against them, so they could move on to appeal the "loss".

It's just legal manuvering on Apple's part.  They still want to limit
programming freedom and establish a significant user interface
monopoly.

Sadly, FSF has to continue to not support GNU software on Apple
machines.

If you like more information on this and also the threat of software
patents, please ask
