As some of you will know, I didn’t get to Turkey for the ECSC. I pulled out due to a heavy cold. However, I am now recovered and am looking forward to the BCPS Residential weekend in Torquay, to where I shall be travelling on Friday.
I have been doing some work on my Meson Chess Problem database, keying problems in. As of this morning there are 77,457 problems available online. Anticipations are getting more frequent, and these days no update session goes by without me finding at least one anticipation. There are now 261 complete (exact position) anticipations. That is 0.34% of the total problems on Meson. Substantive anticipations (only #2s of course, so far) number 281, which is 0.36% of the total number of problems on Meson and 0.73% of the #2s, which number 38,383. Given the small number of problems on Meson and the vast number still to be added, these percentages will probably be going up.
Apart from the contributions from Harry and Anders there has been very little response to the new-look Meson pages. I shall be making the changes to the solution presentation that Harry has requested, though I shall not promise when. I am making the assumption that no news is good news and that everybody is happy.
I have written a ‘To-do’ list of planned enhancements to Meson, which you can find here. Comments, and indeed further suggestions, are welcome, though I shall not promise to add anything to the list or provide implementation dates for those already on the list. These things will be done as time becomes available.
I hope to post the radio drama preview tomorrow.
