I would gladly make a winboard adapter for Chessbase engines if I had their
specs. I have just e-mailed Chessbase to ask. If someone has them and can e-mail
them to me, it would be very welcome.

Doing it via auto232 would be possible too, but I think it would be bad because
it is not possible to automatically handle time control and lag via this
protocol.
