The World Xiangqi League (WXL) was created in 1997 by a team of developers led by Paul English. The WXL became the largest Asian game community of its time, with over 100,000 unique registered users, and servers in USA, Singapore, Beijing, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Malaysia.
Xiangqi (Chinese chess) is the oldest game of chess in the world, and is played by most men throughout Asia.
In 2010, Paul will start work on a documentary about Xiangqi, to be shot in Chinatown in New York City. And a few of his friends, led by Christian Allen, are working to restore the xiangqi game servers over the next couple months.
