I found today the following message has been posted to shogi-l.
USF - Universal Shogi Format - SHOGI-L | Google Group
almost every year, there is a discussion about a replacement of the
stupid PSN-Format.
Every year, there is no result.
I always told, that PSN is not up-to-date and we need a better format,
but it's stupid to simply define any new one, while nobody likes to
use it.
There must be AT LEAST ONE program supporting it.
Now the time is ready - with BCMShogi.
I still implemented a lot of functionality into BCMShogi, which can't
be saved in any format.
So finally, I have created a new one: USF - Universal Shogi Format
The specification can be read here:

Anyone that are interested in it, please click the link just above.
Here is the link to the toppage of BCMShogi.
