Thanks for the angle. Right, good Chessbase, everyone's favourite orthochess site, is covering FRC, and we will too.  Here also is what Mig Greengard said about the German event before and after Hikaru Nakamura's final win today for chess960 2009 title:

''If Nakamura wins there's probably some horribly strained element of seredenpity to be made about a US champion becoming the world champion in a chess variant spawned by the last US world champion.''  Greengard expresses interesting reservations about FRC above. They would more or less apply to all of Pre-Chess and Deployment, Slide-Shuffle and Capablanca Random Chess
