It appears the WinBoard forum is in trouble (perhaps it was hacked), and
it is doubtfull whether it will ever go on line again.
I will set up a page on my own website (hgm.nubati.nl) where the
WinBoard package can be downloaded. I will distribute a link to it
through this channel, as soon as I made it.

Hi,
On the GNU web page for XBoard, the link to the WinBoard Forum goes to
an error page. Here is the error that is displayed:
---------------------------------------------------
General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]
User eq80053 already has more than 'max_user_connections' active
connections [1203]
An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an
administrator if this problem persists.
---------------------------------------------------
Trying to go to the base URL for the WinBoard Forum
("http://www.open-aurec.com/wbforum/";) yields the same error.
WinBoard is still very popular on FICS. It would be helpful if the
WinBoard Forum could be reinstated. Thanks much.
Sincerely,
