Hi
we would like to do a new release soon... since there have been quite a
few changes we'll call it 4.7.0. Would be great if you could test the
latest git and report problems back. At the moment the only thing that
I'm aware of are some warnings during compilation that we will fix
before the rele

4) WinBoard has problems reliably terminating engine processes
on a heavily loaded machine, when running a tournament. When I
run with ponder off on a dual there never is a problem, but with ponder
on more than half the engin processes keeps hanging in the task

Any objections to creating a 4.6.x branch?
I think a 4.6.x branch is a good idea. The enhancements we have
now compared to 4.5 make a pretty coherent set; I don't have
any immediate ideas for other features to add. (Note, however,
that not everything is in Savannah master yet, as I still have
Hi
just wanted to check in about 4.6.0 which would be the next release from
the master branch. I would like to start a 4.6.x branch of master. I
guess at least until the first release master and v4.6.x could run in
parallel or is there anything in master that shouldn't go into 4.6.0?
4.6.0 would

The white border makes the icon stand out better when I view it with an
image viewer. I couldn't see a difference in the actual game though when I
tried overwriting the icon with the new one. Does it just appear

I now committed a compromise patch in the hgm4.5.2 branch,
where I don't immediately limit the menu names to just the first
letter when the full names do not fit, but where I gradually clip
the names to a length where the menu bar fits. It kicks in for
square sizes below 45, but accounts for the n

I would vote for this quick fix or leaving it as it is (doesn't look too
bad on my computer)... another fix could be to center the board under
the menu in case the menu

Well, I was checking things, and encountered the following problem in XBoard:
For board sizes (-size) 29, 33, 37, and 40 the menu bar is now wider than
the board,
bacause the new menu organization has more items than it used to
Hi
just wanted to check in and see if everyone is ok with releasing 4.5.3
this weekend. This would be from the 4.5.x branch in git.
There are a few small things such as updating the icon that is still on
my todo list... anything else?
cheers

Hi
just a heads up that the next release (4.5.0) will be happening in the
next few days... unfortunately I wasn't able to finish the documentation
update for winboard (merging it with xboard and producing nice html out
of it), so we'll use an updated rtf file as we did before...
Anyway, HGM has a
Hi
just wanted to give everyone an heads-up that we are thinking of getting
the current master out as a 4.5.0 release in about one month or so...
The main things that are outstanding at the moment are:
* reviewing sprintf->snprintf, etc. changes
* updating documentation (see my branch at

I'm ready for the new release (updated the Changelog, etc also added

anything else you want to add.

for line wrapping to the xboard.texi file?
Are there oth
Hi
I'm fine with releasing now too , we can always push a 4.4.1 in the near future
that fixes any bugs people find.
What do we still need to do until we could release? The only thing that is
still on my list would be updating the web pages a bit, but I guess that could
also wait, since we do
