OK I have it running now :)

Once it is actually downloaded, Defender has no issues with it, as suggested above !

Testing now underway for the chess960 ratings list. Thank you Richard for spending the time to fix chess960 support. It will be good to get a more recent version than 3.29 on the list :)

I'm not sure how many thread the Baron supports -- wine is "limited" to 64.

I have a hardcoded limit of 32 threads in the Baron. If anyone wants to test on bigger machines: Drop me a message. Most likely you'll need a NUMA aware compile as well (the distributed version is not).
