You can get GNU Chess source from the author at venera.isi.edu:pub/gnuchess.tar.Z, or from the GNU cache at prep.ai.mit.edu:/u/emacs/gnuchess.tar.Z (when it's up), or from our cache at tut.cis.ohio-state.edu:pub/gnu/chess/gnuchess.tar.Z*; or via UUCP from osu-cis.

REMARK: Don't forget that many netlander (including me) hasn't the possibility of using 'ftp'! So it is helpful to post the source of gnuchess to this newsgroup, when it has been changed, bugfixed or rewritten :-). --cla

The compressed tar file of the current version is 362,289 bytes, and
would be huge to carry in a newsgroup/mailing list that's primarily a
discussion forum. gnuchess was posted to comp.sources.games (v04i037)
on 11 Jun 88 as <2627@tekred.TEK.COM> by John Stanback
<jhs@hpltbm.HP.COM>. Perhaps Mr Cracraft has plans for another
posting of the current version?
Alternatively, several sites on your side of the pond have Internet
access, and I have mailed tapes to others, who said that they intended
to arrange an anonymous-UUCP or Euro-BITnet redistribution point.
Check around at major European archive sites; perhaps someone already
has it and can send it along to you or make it available for you to
pick up yourself.
