There exist newscid project in http://newscid.sourceforge.net. They started to
rewrite Scid gui in java, but abandoned it and started again with C++ and QT
toolkit from scratch. Probably old Scid is dead as long as its author Shane
Hudson is disappeared.
Anyway i think old Scid is good and complete chess database, maybe further
development is not needed anymore because its ready. Btw. i have fixed few small
problems i saw in Scid, i sent even some of my fixes to Scid mailing list in
beginning this year. Im pretty happy with current Scid and i actually dont see
place where it needs improvements.
