OK, what's going on with GNU Chess then ?

I was just told about GNU Chess 3.21 for Windows 3 on a PC (yuck !) and I
went to my local newsagent and sure enough, the latest edition of "Computer
Buyer" - costing an incredibly cheap 93 pence - had a disk on the front with
GNU Chess 3.21 on it.

I unpacked the ZIP archive on our UN*X system here and the whole thing's
been Windows-3-ised, much to my disappointment (although at least the source
code's been supplied). The porter was Daryl K. Baker and the "todo" file
includes bug reports on the Windows port from none other than Stuart Crac-
raft !

So my questions are: who IS maintaining the latest version of GNU Chess and
where's the UN*X version of 3.2 ?? The latest GNU Chess I have is 3.1 with
3 patches. I don't like the idea of the Windows port going off at a tangent
(the source code is now split into some 26 *.c source files and really isn't
compilable on UN*X systems any more).
