 <h4>development version</h4>
 
-<p>It would be great if people would like help in the developing process. We can use all kind of help, from people who just use the software and have a feature request (send them to developer mailing list), to people who can update/check the documentation... a big help would be people that test the latest git-version or the developer snapshots and send us bugreports.</p>

 <p>At the moment we have three developer versions:</p>
 
 <ul>
 <li>A snapshot of the 4.4.3 branch: 
-   This will become the next stable version. Nothing there since 4.4.2 just got released...</li>
-<li>A snapshot of the master branch: <a href="ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/xboard/">master-20091122</a>. <br />
-   The master branch at this moment also includes changes that will go in future version, but not necessary in the next release. Since this includes lots of changes, chances for major bugs are higher.</li>
-<li>A snapshot of the gtk branch: <a href="ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/xboard/">gtk-20091122</a>. <br />
-   In the gtk branch we are working on merging Winboard and Xboard back together using a gtk-frontend. This code doesn't work 100% yet, it will crash quite often, but you can almost play normal games against a machine already.</li>
+   This will become the next stable version.  <a href="ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/xboard/">4.4.3.20100220</a>. A precompiled version is available for <a href="http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/apersaud/">openSUSE</a>.
