I also have rpm packages of xboard for opensuse (http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/apersaud/). I'll put a link up on the gnu-webpage to point to those two as a developer release for beta-tester. I'll also upload a tar.gz of the latest snapshot to alpha.gnu.org. I also will contact the FICS admins and ICS to spread the word a bit. ARUN
