Just a simple inquiry for the folks out there...

The current version of GNU Chess is 3.1 and has many serious flaws (inability
to spot checkmates several play down in many circumstances for instance).
Does anyone know if any work is in progress on 3.2 (or whatever the next
version is to be called) ? I've tried e-mailing Stuart Cracraft, but with
no response I'm afraid. An approximate release date for the new version would
be a very useful thing to know.
