Hi,

Whith the increase in size of the table base it become clear that only a few
people will ba able to afford the material (and the bandwidth to retrieve it) to
store and used thoses databases.

I know there already one (at least) web service that allow clients to get the bm
for the 3-4-5-men egtb. I think that this kind of service for the 6-men table
base will become a must. Maybe the chess software vendors like ChessBases will
provide such a service for the use of their software in the future.

There is however little hope to see such a service free of charge to be used by
the freeware and amateurs programs. We would need a coop of programmer to pay
for the hardware and hosting or a generous donator wich is unlikely.
