Matthias.
in the future there will be alot of ANDROID chess and Mac Chess due to the new Ipads, Apads etc. tablet-PCs.
most of those Pads use different operating systems and i guess there will be plenty of different programs/engines
for these available and it could be discussions would be chaotic if you put them all together
in ONE area.
Today this might be different , but for the future its clear that
there is the need to discuss Chess in Windows, Linux, MacOs, Android, Java, PalmOS,...
apple sold 3.000.000 Ipads, and 10-15 companies will bring out new tablet-pcs in the next coming months
(dell, wetab, archos, motorola, samsung, toshiba, asus, intel...)
so there will be plenty of things to discuss.
After looking at it from a couple angles, sub-forums under platform is probably unnecessary. A good description is all that is needed.Matthias Gemuh wrote:Hi Thorsten,thorstenczub wrote:hi mathias. i don't think there are too many platform subforums.Matthias Gemuh wrote:The "Platforms" sub-forum can do without sub-fora, I think.

you may be right about the future. However, presently there is no need yet for the sub-fora under "Platforms".
Their creation can be postponed till necessary.
BTW, I think the main screen has too many frames.

Sure. Some suggestions indicate that Hardware + Software + Forum Rules and Announcement could be put under General Topics.64x wrote:The turnover on implementing the suggestions is amazing. Thank you for your dedication. Things like this is what will make this forum a huge success.
