Nice! Laser 1.7 is out!

BTW, where did you get an updated Robocide source? Is it still being developed? Or is it the same as always?

The source was not updated, but there was no windows compile publically available (only linux ones).
Thanks Tony.

Two things:
1. The downloaded engine introduces itself as v1.0.
2. The syzygy bases must be under its own folder. No path parameter. I don't think many will like that solution.

Hello All,

I've made a new FrankWalter release: 2.3.2, and FrankWalter is now hosted on Github: https://github.com/ljgw/frankwalter/releases

The main 'improvement' is that FrankWalter is now open source. Besides that, the most important changes are how the xboard protocol is parsed and how time is managed for the engine. This should now allow pondering for the engine, and also makes the engine a little bit faster, but otherwise there is no difference in which moves would be played by the engine. In particular, 2.3.2 is just a bugfix for the 2.3.1 release.

Due to the nature of the release, I appreciate any feedback on how FrankWalter behaves in the assorted GUIs and tournament managers, especially when pondering.

One last thing: to avoid anymore confusion, I've standardized the engine name, and gotten rid of the dash. It is now "FrankWalter", just like its aleady spelled on CCRL.
