Hi Norm
Where is the source code ?
When you entered Crimson in my E group, you stated :

It is very strange than you changed your mind.I will be releasing it (including source code) very soon...

Hi Olivier,
i did in fact release the source code, as you well know.
Crimson is not open-source. it's unfortunate you're not pleased.
kindly refrain from pressuring me any further.

Re: Crimson 1.1 available
There is at least a 400 elo gap between 0.2 (open source) and 1.1, which makes the old source meaningless.
I simply won't use it, and I don't care if some gun happy testers do.

Re: Crimson 1.1 available
with all due respect, i think the CEGT, CCRL, and UEL are the best in the field. they are top-notch and highly respected testing organizations, it troubles me somewhat to hear you say this.Olivier Deville wrote:There is at least a 400 elo gap between 0.2 (open source) and 1.1, which makes the old source meaningless.

creating a functional chess program is not meaningless...it's quite an accomplishment, especially when it plays at a high level...i'd like to see you do it!
400 ELO is not accurate...from my testing (thousands of games during development), i am confident that the ELO difference between 0.2 and 1.0 (i assume you mean 1.0...1.1 was just released last night) is closer to 200, maybe 250 ELO. (of course, i have dozens of even older versions that are weaker still...in the 1600-2000 range, etc. if you're interested in old versions).
how many games did you test? i hope it's more than the handfull that occurred in Group E. please attach them here, i'd like to take a look. did you use the Intel PGO compile I posted? Matthias indicated he encountered some bugs when running/testing 0.2.
i do realize you may still be bitter, i thought we were past that, but obviously, testing is your perogative.

il a été corrigé maintenent!
all my Intel compiles are created with a .bat file using the name 'cyclone'...didn't change it before archiving.
(mistakes reveal one thing -> we're all human!)

Crimson 1.1 is a clone of Viper (and so is 1.0)

I have examined both Crimson 1.0 and Crimson 1.1.
They are both clones of Viper 0.1 by Tord Romstad.
