v0.2 (13 Jul 2011)

• Piece selection/moving has changed: now pieces are selected & moved by waving a wand item (new config item wand_item, default is empty hand) with left-click. Much more usable, since it can be done from a distance - less running about the board needed. Right-click still works but is deprecated and will print a warning every time it's used. Right-click will be removed in the next release.
• Control panel on the side of each board with chess clock, to-play indicator, halfmove clock display, ply count display, and a set of buttons to make a lot of the /chess commands easier to use (e.g. you can now create a game on the board with one click).
• More visible notification if you've been placed in check.
• When you join a game, you can now be automatically teleported to it (new config item auto_teleport_on_join, default true).
• If a player logs out, their opponent may claim victory by default after a configurable delay (new config item forfeit_timeout, default 60 seconds).
• Board lighting is now checked once per second by default, not once per 10 seconds. The same task also updates chess clocks on each board.
• Implemented the 50-move rule (game is drawn if no pawn moves & no captures in the last 50 moves - see the halfmove clock on the control panel).
• Various minor tweaks & bug fixes.

v0.1.1 (8 Jul 2011)
