libpwmd7-dev and application patches

bjk — Wed, 09 Nov 2011 20:29:46 +0000

I have some updated application patches for the development version of libpwmd and am getting them ready for others to test pwmd 3.0 and libpwmd 7.0 against.

This was inspired by new exim, QTM and fetchmail releases. Maybe I will even update the libpwmd6 patches, too.

Update: I’ve updated some, but not all, of the application patches for the development version of libpwmd7: fetchmail, exim mail server, and qtm. If you use these applications and also use pwmd, please test these patches.

CBoard 0.6

bjk — Sat, 01 Oct 2011 18:07:03 +0000

After a few years of inactivity, a new version of CBoard has been released. This version no longer sends SIGINT to the chess engine. It used to be that there was no problem when sending this signal. But somehow it breaks engine IO when sent.

This version also has a faster move history validator. You can download it here.

Signed-off-by: and git

bjk — Fri, 11 Feb 2011 22:33:59 +0000

I have just discovered what the Signed-off-by: line in a git commit means to most people. I assumed that it was the person who committed the commit and not necessarily the person who wrote it. This is a mistake on my part. It should be considered the person who wrote or submitted the patch. So when you see these lines in previous git commits please think of them as the Author: name and email and not mine own.
