I could probably help here.


As usual, discussions about

No problem - my photo is already on the Web.
If anyone is curious, it is at:

Just give me an ftp target, and I'll push them in there.

I don't see myself adding much here, but I'd definitely like to see
this resource.

If you like.

Could be good.

I have a few (backlog) articles I can contribute.
Also, I think it would be useful to provide links to pertinent
chess software review articles elsewhere on the Internet.

I've got the standard ones. Again, give me an ftp target folder when ready.

Of interest. I can contribute a few Dutch Computer Championships if needed.

Looks like that is the end of what I can help with.

WANTED to SEE:

String search capability in CCC.
