-** Announcing the release of XBoard and WinBoard, version 4.2.7 **
-
-XBoard is a graphical chessboard for the X Window System that can
-serve as a user interface for GNU Chess, Crafty, and other chess
-engines, for the Internet Chess Servers, and for electronic mail
-correspondence chess.  XBoard can also be used by itself.  It can read
-and write game files in PGN (portable game notation).
-
-WinBoard is a similar program for 32-bit Microsoft Windows.  It
-includes all the major features of XBoard except email correspondence
-chess.
-
-A new release of both XBoard and WinBoard is now available.  Version
-4.2.7 corrects about two dozen bugs in the 4.2.6 release.  See the
-ChangeLog for a list.  In addition, WinBoard 4.2.7 comes bundled with
-GNU Chess 5.07 instead of the old 5.02+ version.  The XBoard and
-WinBoard source code trees have been merged, so the xboard download
-now contains the complete source for both.
-
-The various larger contributions that people have submitted since the
-4.2.6 release are not yet included in 4.2.7.  The source code for
-these contributions is now available, however (see
-http://www.tim-mann.org/extensions.html), and we plan to include most
-of them in a future release once the contributors complete necessary
-copyright assignment paperwork.
-
-You can get both XBoard and WinBoard from either our new Savannah
-project pages or their existing pages on Tim Mann's web site:

-
-Most of the known bugs and deficiencies in previous versions have
-*not* been addressed in this release.  It is not necessary to report
-your favorite bug again if you have reported it before, unless the
-ChangeLog erroneously says it has been fixed.  Most known bugs,
-deficiencies, and suggestions received are now listed in the ToDo
-file.  If you find a bug not listed there, please report it in the bug
-tracker at https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/xboard/ or by email to 
-bug-xboard [AT] tim-mann.org.
