Subject: Third Party Winboard support for Fritz GUI

Author: Mike Hood

Date: 05:31:44 06/10/03


Do you all remember Chessbase's Winboard adapter? It was nice to use it to run
Winboard engines in the Fritz GUI, but the sloppy implementation made more
friends than enemies, and Chessbase has now withdrawn support for it. But why
don't we see this as an opportunity? If Chessbase no longer offers a Winboard
adapter, why doesn't some non-Chessbase person write a new adapter instead of
leaving users to fiddle around with Winboard-UCI converters? Someone well
acquainted with both the Winboard and Chessbase protocols. There are a few
programmers who fit the description... any volunteers?
