Hi Pete,

Eugene Namilov is currently generating the positions that include pawns and has
already sent some of them to Bob Hyatts ftp site.  When I last spoke to Bob he
is waiting for the next bunch of data which Eugenes sends him on a 100 gb hard
drive.  I am also anxiously waiting for the next set and my best advice is to
keep looking here in this forum.  Well the total set once generated with
compression I believe is estimated to be about 1 tb.  Thats positions with and
without pawns.  For the most part all pawnless positions have been completed for
6 pieces except the 5-1 set.  Ummm Eugene any change of heart for the 5-1 set
<S>???
