(for all readers: despite the months without any updates, this week I restarted working on eboard, fixed a batch of 5 bugs, will check several engine-related bugs tonight and I have started implementing P2P playing (direct connection of two eboards over the Internet). A new version should be released in early July. When choosing which feature requests to implement and bugs to fix, I'm trying to honor the chronological order in the sourceforge trackers -- http://sourceforge.net/projects/eboard -> Bugs / Feature Requests. Although I do check bugs and requests sent by email, having them centralized at sourceforge helps me.) .........................................................................
