Frank,

I want to make sure that you know that I have always had positive thoughts about
UCI, Martin, and you.  Sometimes other people have posted negative things about
UCI or the need for Arena, but I have not agreed with them (subject to my
limitated understanding of the API issues in UCI versus in WinBoard).  Although
I don't dislike Winboard, I have felt from the beginning that Arena is a very
worthwhile project and is likely to result in a program that I would prefer to
use over WinBoard.  I thank Martin and you (and everybody involved) for doing
this great work for free!

I can see how the wording of my original question was not great and might lead
to offense.  I am sorry for that -- there was certainly no offense intended!

Before posting that question, I actually did briefly visit the FCP forum and did
a quick scan for information about Arena's recent progress.  I didn't see any
relevant posts regarding that and I considered the possibility that Martin had
become busy on something else and perhaps had put Arena on hold for awhile.  I
am glad it is *not* on hold, and I I look forward to the next version!

Best regards,

  -Roy.
