I'll email Maciej and see if I can find out what's happening.

I guess I should have posted about this few months ago when I tried to download Matcz 1.3..It's been down for a while now.

Hi Graham,

Thanks for interest :)
I know about this problem - I know that my provider changed a server
and after it I have no access to my account there.
I tried to contact him but haven't got any reply yet.
Anyway I didn't consider it very important because unfortunately I did
not have time
to work on Matacz for last year - so nothing changed.
I still have interest on upgrading Matacz (even a dream about re-writing
it), but I cannot specify
when I will have time for it. Right now I only check all the tournaments
with my engine (BTW thank you for testing it!).

You can post it to CCC, as for a long time my account seems to be
blocked (mayby I forgot the password but when I
want to retrieve it, I get a message: "The e-mail address you supplied
does not match the one listed for that username.")

Best Regards
Maciej
I'll try to sort out his CCC account so that he can post again.

Matacz can have a permanent mirror on my homepage if you wish and I'm sure Leo Dijksman (WBEC) would offer one too.

Thank You all!

Till now I had no time to "resurrect" my webpage (I didn't consider it very important as my engine has not been updated).

I created a new web page at:

http://matacz.110mb.com

I would be grateful if somebody (Jim?) wants to put somewhere a mirror of the newest version - just in case my page is gone again :)

Than you for testing my engine!

Hi Maciej,

Matacz is now available for download from my homepage
and it's a pleasure to host such a fine chess engine.
Matacz will always have a second home here. :)

best,
Jim.
