Hello friends....

I have personally been in contact with the owner of Chess about the project and here's what he had to say:

"I'm totally busy with my professional and other activities and don't have the time to continue the project currently.
I hope to continue in September 2008."




Well, I am sorry to see the date come and go. To be sure, I can understand how life gets in the way of hobby projects, but just an update once every few months on how things are going would be appreciated.

I have a hard time believing that it would be very time consuming to generate work units, but if that is the case, how about letting someone else do it?

Here is hoping the project recovers.

DN.

Honestly, there are plenty of really useful projects out there. This project IS dead.

Stupid me, I even donated a few bucks and got nothing in return!

Forget Chess960, and support WCG, Rosetta, Cels or any other active project with talking, alive admins! ;)

Ok, it's September


Hello!
October and still no news, it will take the owner of this project less than a minute to declare this project dead or what ever good news he may have! No body has so much to do , that he can't keep his friends/helpers informed??

Look forward to get any news , good or bad; hope to hear from somebody "very soon" as a Christmas present a least.

With regards,

This is amazingly good news for the project. Here is hoping that in September, time will indeed permit him to breathe new life into this project.

Thanks for posting this good news after such a long dry spell. :-)
