'''2011-09-13''' - Miniature finally plays real chess online! You might find rough corners and room for improvement but the basics are in place. This is why we have decided to call this release after [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luis_Ram%C3%ADrez_de_Lucena Luis Ramírez de Lucena] who, without being apparently a great master, had the patience to document the modern rules of chess at their birth five centuries ago.

Now users can login to http://freechess.org (aka FICS) as guests or registered users and send / take challenges to & from other players. This already fulfills the needs of many, but those expecting even more fun will be happy to know that chatting with your opponent is also supported.

We are aiming to publish this version in the Ovi Store for the Nokia N9 and N950. Packages ready for other Qt enabled OSs are welcome!

# Open the browser of your Nokia N9 / N950.
# Tap on http://taschenorakel.de/files/michael/miniature_0.4.0-1_armel.deb
