Komodo For iPOD

Post by Sean Evans »

Hello Don,

Any chance we will see Komodo available for the iPod/iPhone/iPad?

Maybe Tord will license you his GUI?

What do you say?

Cordially,

Sean :)

I don't wish to put words in Tord's mouth, but you can see from here that he doesn't sound too excited about granting GPL exemptions to iOS developers.
You seem very excited about getting more chess engines released as iOS apps. Have you considered developing, or paying somebody to develop, reusable GUI code for this platform under a very permissive license?

Hi Sean,

My first priority would be the Android and then perhaps other platforms. However, I have WAY TOO much to do as it is. You may see an Android version out soon however due to the efforts of others ...
