Hi,

Steen Suurballe made an update !

This Gandalf 4.32g update is free for registered user.
At the moment is the version in Beta for a little test.

When you are registerd user and have interest on an beta test

a lot of chess playing GUI) please write me an eMail to:

by insufficient material was reached. Continous playing now.

2000-11-20 : #0005

Evaluation tuning of :
- Pawn Structures

  playing strength is improved by estimated 25-30 ELO.
