Ok, several questions and comments:
1. When using Winboard, how do you use it? Do you use it to log into the
CV websites, or enter in the current move manually, enter in your own
move, have it spit it back and then type it in here?
2. If Winboard works as I am thinking with chess, anyone know if it could
be expanded to cover other games, like checkers or Go?
3. CVML is merely a data structure for formatting data files so different
systems can understand them. The format also makes these files easy to
understand. The format explains what data should be where in the file.
They also use XML stuff (CVML would be derived from XML) to also handle
formatting of web pages.
4. In regards to FEN, CVML could be used as a way to extend FEN and handle
more than FEN does.
Anyhow, these are my latest thoughts on this. Thanks for the comments.
Is it time that we break off a separate topic to discuss CVML?
