I'm in the process of upgrading XBoard 2.0.

We dug up the old XChess at my site, and, with some pain, got it to run
under X11R5.  It was the first time I'd seen it.  I really like the more
elaborate board, with the analog clocks, the message and diary area, etc.
On the other hand, I kind of like the "plain" appearance of XBoard.

What do you all think?  What do you want XBoard to look like?  Lots of
pull-down menus?  Analog clocks?  More bells and whistles?  No more bells
and whistles?

Speak up, because I'll try to appeal to the majority.
