Why it matters
GNU Chess stands as a significant milestone in free software history, representing the GNU Project's early efforts to develop a robust, open-source chess engine. By making the source code freely available, it encouraged a collaborative culture of chess programming and algorithmic improvement that influenced many subsequent open-source projects.
