Winter v4.0 has been released! A big thank you to Jim Ablett for the compiles this time around!
https://github.com/rosenthj/Winter/releases/tag/v4.0

This version of Winter has a GNN with the NNUE style perspective feature. It has roughly twice the weights of the v3.0 net and a full evaluation requires roughly 4x the amount of floating point operations. It has been trained on just over 200M positions, over 4x as many samples as the prior net.

Winter's search has also undergone some changes, including a decent amount of tuning which was made possible thanks to OpenBench and everyone contributing there. Winter would not be the same without you guys! The release also contains a key patch contribution by Alexander Litov (Equisetum and Drofa).
