There are already 100+ free winboard engines that you can download that play at

You have the whole collection of links at (cut and paste, it is one line):

Winboard-Overview/winboard-overview.html

You have tons of links there too.
and you have an estimation of the strength of all of the engines here:

and tell me I will love it :-))
