I still see no mention of 7-men adjudication, is that so?

Planned but something not as straightforward to support as anticipated.

Surely interrupt/resume tournament will be one of them.
No I think that's too scary task and needs much more testing...

What they promised they didn't do - it's a pity. As always, everything ends with promises.

I'm still hoping. I have to switch off my PC very often so that feature is most important to me.

Hi Gabor,

you can use the "start" command if you are using startpositions for the testmatches.
I do so very often.

Best wishes,

He tested this application a bit. There are still problems with the engine Booot 6.4 x64. After the engine settings - Hash 16384 - Threads - 16. The application shows an error. It may be an engine error. But no one wanted to help on that point.
