** The 'free' command is disabled. To play a 'free' game,
   both players must enter the "FREE GAME ROOM". gGo, glGo, and
   PandaEgg support the 'room' command directly. From other clients,
   use the terminal window and type 'room' to see the list. To join a
   room, type 'join room_number'. Example: join 2   To see a list of
   players in the room, enter 'who'. To leave a room enter 'join 0'
   Use the 'shout' to communicate with players in a room, it will
   only be seen by those in the room.

** The 'undo' and 'stored' functions have changed.
   See   help undoplease     help stored

** glGo is available for Windows, Macintosh OS X, and Linux.

   The default setting is a single window mode, but if you prefer the
   multi-window mode, make the switch in the 'Preferences'. The windows
   in the single-window mode are 'tear off windows'. The button order
   can be changed with right clicks. See the 'changelog' for more info!

** glGo and the recent Debian and Ubuntu upgrades.  See   help glgotab

** New rules of conduct ... Starting the 1st of July new rules of conduct
   will go into effect.
    1) Both players must make the 1st move within one minute.
         black player: one minute after starting the game.
         white player: one minute after black's first move.
        If a player does not move within one minute, the player
        loses 50 rating-points, and the opponent gets 50 rating-points.
    2) Games will be counted as rated once two moves have been made.
    3) Rated players gain 50 points when they win a game against non-rated
       players (but no points are lost when losing such games).
