I can't see anything on KC today. No board, no moves, no nothing. I think, in the case of the ICCA, that one of the problems is that none of the organizers are actively involved in computer chess any longer. IE when you are competing, or are active, your interest level is higher. I organized one of the ACM events many years ago, and spent a lot of time because I was also going to be a participant, and wanted everything to go smoothly.
