Hi all,

on my homepage (http://www.sjeng.org) you can find the latest release
of Sjeng, version 10.

This is the final release, there will be no new versions except
for possibly bugfixes.

Sjeng is a free (GPL'ed) chessplaying program that can play normal
chess, crazyhouse (aka dropchess), bughouse (siamese chess), suicide
(also called antichess), giveaway (similar to suicide) and losers chess.

Except for normal chess, where it is about 2200 ELO, Sjeng is the
strongest free program for each of those variants.

It interfaces via WinBoard, XBoard or EBoard and can also be used via
the ChessBase WinBoard adapter in ChessBase, Fritz, Nimzo, Hiarcs, etc...
or any other product supporting the WinBoard protocol.

Main new features in this version include:

- Much strongers losers play
- More knowledge for standard chess
- Support for Nalimov endgame tablebases
- Lots of small changes to make it more stable
