Dear Retro Friend,

Today the Retro Corner was updated again:

- Champagne Tourney 2003 (Awarded Problems)
- Orbit, 2004
- Records in Retro Analysis
- Shortest Mates in Proof Games (collected by Christoph Fieberg)
- Shortest Mates in Proof Games (collected by Norbert Geissler)
- Shortest Mates in Proof Games (originals from the RML)
- What was the Last Move?

Please note the new section "Records in Retro Analysis"
(http://janko.at/Retros/Records/index.htm). The aim of this section is to
collect all kinds of records in Retro analysis.

Currently, there are two large collections online: "Shortest Mates in Proof
Games" (many thanks to Christoph Fieberg and Norbert Geissler!) and "What
was the last move?" (I can't remember the source, maybe Joost?). For other
themes, we could add pages with the top 10 compositions that fulfills the
conditions, e.g. "longest SPG without duals". Feel free to propose those
pages. Please contribute!

Best Regards,

- Otto Janko [mailto:otto at janko.at] [http://janko.at]
