Hello Michael!

Some postings ago I told on my difficulties concerning a missing extended
protocol. Such a protocol should be able to support normal chess, FRC, Janus
Chess, Gothic Chess and Capablanca's Chess, additionally in a randomized form
analog FRC, keeping also Queen and Archbishop on different colored squares.

Regards, Reinhard.
