I will probably not be able to get back in touch before the 11th.
I think we should rethink our release policy, and perhaps
include forking as a standard procedure. With this I mean that
I would like to have a version where I experiment with large code
changes, in parallel with a version where we only fix minor
bugs, that we of course also fix in the alpha version, but which
we can clear for release then much earlier.

The 4.4.1 with two simple bug fixes (castling rights on FEN pasting
and crash on engine crash) should in this scheme go out as 4.4.2
in the new tar ball with WinBoard sources; the other stuff I have
produced should then be called 4.4.2.<date> when we tag it
as beta.
