15.07.2004 15.07.2004: Announcement from CL Office:
Dear chessfriends,
The adjudication process is going on slowly, but surely. Things affecting the process are:
  • players sending their analysis in all games except one in the last days of June (even July 1st)
  • analysis being sent to us in several formats instead of the simple text format
  • analysis sent to us in different than English languages
  • the complexity of of the positions needing adjudication
We will do our best to finalise it in a timely manner and begin registrations for the new season. An important announcement about the new season will follow shortly. Your patience is very much appreciated. Thank you!
Yours, Eugen
