Phew. It would have been pretty awesome though if it actually was stronger than Rybka.....

I'm working on Chess960 support. But don't expect a new version before end of summer, because I have many other activities (not related to computer chess).

I have alwasy been amazed by people that asks for a new version on the same thread of the announcement of a new version

This makes me remember an old teacher of mine that, about the question "What is life ?", used to tell us: "Life is that thing that happens while you are thinking to your future projects"

Thanks Richard..and i wish you a good progress with your nice engine!

My meaning is not to force people to bring out every week or month a new version.
It's better to have positive thinking or ask questions that lead to a nice waiting time for a next release.

Better then all these fight talking on the forum..i can easy wait 2 years for a new compile..but you know like that way that the programmer is still busy to try to make his engine stronger!
