winboard is definitely NOT full of bugs - there are no illegal operations at
all, not only in my experience - just ask the winboard community. In my opinion
the winboard protocol and Tim Manns work is the biggest effort in the last 10
years of amateur computer chess... Or why do you think so many company's try to
implement the winboard protocol in there professional GUI ? Because it is buggy
? The only thing what is buggy are certain winboard adapters from the pro's...
