My question (OK, two questions): Is this OK? And, >where do I send my bug reports and improvement ideas to? > >Thanks! :-) Hi Roy, only short: I have problems with English. Many persons wrote me in the past in English and I sitting at home and must translate this messsages. I cann't all understand and must translate. I have big problems with my time if I get to many mail's in English. But I think I have improved greatly my English (not my grammer). In my school time for more as 20 years (I am 35 years) I will not learn this language and have the biggest problems. But my math and other school subjects are very good. My headmaster is now my chess friend and we laughing about this time because my "Ex school headmaster" don't also speak English and we all don't know this for more as 20 years. My headmaster used Shredder 5, SOS, Yace and now also the UCI Gandalf version. He say to me 4 programs is enough for me but I cann't understand what he mean (only 4 programs) :-)) OK ... Arena Beta Test is the theme: I understand your message so that you have interest to spent time for Arena with ideas and improvements. This is great. Maybe you can make a list and added this list in my forum. This was great ... It is an official beta test and Martin know that Arena is not perfect but the GUI is very young. It's OK if you make it in my forum and also OK if you send Martin Blume your ideas in a private mail. Thanks for your interest on Arena. I hope we have in the near future an easy freeware GUI with more options as WinBoard. For me is WinBoard good enough but I like also Arena and this great work from Martin Blume. Best Frank
