I have already started adding support for variations and moving though them. Is it okay to release the whole of the module under an Open Source license? Hans Hi Will,

Okay thanks.

I don't have time to do much work on it, but any improvements will be gratefully received! I deliberately made provision for exotics flavors of chess - the board width and height are parameters and not hard coded as 8 - so hopefuly it wont be too painful to adapt. Not sure how well I stuck to that through the entire module though. I'm afraid I've abandoned the AJAX chess idea. Just for lack of time, but I may pick it up again at some point in the future... Email me if you need more information - my email address is in the About page. Regards, Will Hi Hans,

I am willing to help development of the module. I wrote a full PGN parser and database program in the past, so I can extend the module so that it can handle variations as well. Just let me know if you are interested. How's work on the AJAX chess website? There is a site, www.lutanho.net, that contains a javascript chess library. Maybe you could use that as well. I am planning on including it on the website of my chessclub, so that people can setup chess diagrams through the web. Regards, Hans Hi Will,

So it may be a while before a release. For non-commercial use it is free in return for a credit. I'm not sure about commerical use yet, but I may end up just releasing it on some liberal open source license. I'll need to give it some thought!

Everything that is similar on sourceforge is dead or just junk. PS. The ChessPy you've developed; what licensing terms are you releasing it under?
