  Description     : xboard-compatible chess engine

Arasan is a chess engine - a console-based program that plays
the game of chess.  It may be used together with interface
programs such as xboard.  It may be configured in different
ways for a compromise between performance and playing strength.

I intend to maintain this package within the Debian Games Team.

G'luck,
Peter

Hi,

A long time ago, you expressed interest in packaging arasan. Unfortunately,
it seems that it did not happen. In Debian, we try not to keep ITP bugs open
for a too long time, as it might cause other prospective maintainers to
refrain from packaging the software.

This is an automatic email to change the status of arasan from ITP
(Intent to Package) to RFP (Request for Package), because this bug hasn't seen
any activity during the last 12 months.

If you are still interested in packaging arasan, please send a mail to
<control@bugs.debian.org> with:

 retitle 771057 ITP: arasan -- xboard-compatible chess engine
 owner 771057 !
 thanks

It is also a good idea to document your progress on this ITP from time to
time, by mailing <771057@bugs.debian.org>.  If you need guidance on how to
package this software, please reply to this email, and/or contact the
debian-mentors@lists.debian.org mailing list.

Thank you for your interest in Debian,
