I am glad to announce the release of version 6.3.0 of GNU Chess.

GNU Chess is a chess-playing program. It can be used to play chess
against the computer on a terminal or, more commonly, as a chess engine
for graphical chess frontends.

This is the first of a new minor release.

We are very thankful for all contributions and all kind of feedback.

The home page can be found at the usual location:
http://www.gnu.org/software/chess/

You can get the compressed sources from a nearby mirror:
http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/chess/gnuchess-6.3.0.tar.gz

If automatic redirection fails, the list of mirrors is at:
http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html

Or if need be you can use the main GNU ftp server:
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/chess/gnuchess-6.3.0.tar.gz

The development source can be downloaded from the Git
repository at Savannah:
http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/chess

Bug reports, your kind contributions and any feedback are welcome.

Best regards,

Antonio Ceballos
GNU Chess Team
