Description Alexandre Franke 2016-11-01 12:23:47 UTC
Correspondence chess is an old tradition. Technically one could already do it with current GNOME Chess by saving the game and sending over to your partner using your email client, but it would be so much more convenient to be able to set an email address as the partner for a given name and then just automatically send the game after every move (and maybe on the other hand also import games automatically somehow).

Of course online multiplayer computer games are usually connecting two instances, but the turn by turn nature of chess makes it well suited for an asynchronous medium such as email.
