Subj: Xboard 2.0 release

-------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the first release of the GNU-enhanced Xboard intended
for use with GNU Chess 4.0. Although other versions of GNU
Chess and/or Thompson's /usr/games/chess may be usable through
this interface, we imply assistance (and limited at that) for
Xboard with GNU Chess 4.0 only.

GNU Chess 4.0 will be announced on info-gnu-chess and gnu.chess.
4.0 will be released after "final regression testing and QA."
