Hello shogi fans,

It's a pleasure for me to announce version 2.7. of the GNU Shogi
Database.(GSDB)
GSDB has is a graphical game browser for shogi and a database.
The database contains over 1670 games from the amateur and professional
shogi-
scene.
Please do check the News! section on the home page :

        http://www.netpoint.be/shogi/gsdb/

The complete archive (including source code and games) can be found on :

        http://www.netpoint.be/shogi/gsdb/files/gsdb-2.7.4.zip

Complete help is available for this release.

The large number of games didn't come from nowhere.  They were kindly
provided
by Patrick Davin.  You can find the games nicely classified on his web
site :
http://www.vega.or.jp/~patrick/shogi/
Thanks to Thomas Majewski the games from the latest shogi tournaments
are
present in the database as well.

GSDB has been tested to work on the latest browsers, but should work
just
about anywhere.  Do inform me of any trouble you might have!

Happy GSDB-ing !

Matt
