I have been working diligently on the new version of Storm! which will have 2 versions. 1 version optimized for 1 CPU, another optimized for 2 - 8 CPU's.
Preliminary results are good. It will hopefully make it's debut during the CCT-2 (if everything goes ok). Once complete it will be freely available for download.
As far as strength, well it's still no Crafty, but hopefully will improve over time. My real limitation comes into place when writing the evaluation due to the fact that I suck at chess, but I have been collaborating with some strong players to try and get a grasp. I would like to thank all of those who have tested and provided bug reports on the current version of Storm! and Mr. Corbit for all the time he has spent and will running his Battle of the Crowns which provides invaluable information for the programmer.

P.S.
It will be fully Winboard compliant.
