GNU Chess 6.0.1 has been released. It fixes a few bugs and includes some minor modifications to the program and the documentation.
The first version of GNU Chess 6 has been released.
Version 6 is a major change of GNU Chess, because it is based
on Fruit v2.1, a completely different chess engine. Fruit was written
by Fabien Letouzey, thus he is the primary author of GNU Chess v6.
Version 5 is no longer under active development. We will maintain
it for essential bugs for some time, but of course we recommend
using version 6.
