Thanks for the release Lance and Kerwin.

5.4d was supposed to be nearly 40 elo improvement over 5.4c.


They didn't release it. Somebody stumbled across a link for a beta version that was not supposed to be available for the public.

From Lance in the thread quoted above:

I believe that is a private build, and is intended only for a few number of people doing some limited tests. That is why the home page does not mention it.

I think you have discovered a way to get to the non-public builds. Very clever.


Hi Graham. Kerwin posted a clarification in the Winboard forum about this version, in the thread called Thinking In Parallel. I had posted in that thread announcing this version, and then had been informed it was a private version. I felt bad about posting what I thought was a link for something that wasn't supposed to be available for download and he replied:

There is no harm in downloading the file. Its just that it is not an official release. It is not tested thoroughly and most changes are experimental. Its OK to tell users about it. They just have to be also informed about the status of that build.


Tony


Don't feel so guilty Tony,I also found a way to the location of the file about the same time without reading your post....further more,i made the post in our beloved CCC forum Wink
