Re: Arasan 20.2
Hello Rodolfo,
i am fine thanks, well i am still working and tuning Tornado to improve it about +100 elo to get near 3000 elo wall
but have not much success what i am tried, many things what i test fails and lose around 50-100 elo instead to get about 50 elo
would be fine if someone helping me to improve Tornado just only 100 elo
i am really depressed at the moment....

Re: Arasan 20.2
what i forget is that some engine authors are like Martin Sedlak, Peter Österlund with his Texel method allready helped me to implement them in my source, also many testers of this chess community to find bugs.
i would thanks to all of them, thank you
more helping from others engine authors or testers to a better Tornado later would be fine too
otherwise if i can not really make any progress i will give up more or less in the feature my work on Tornado....

Maybe, I could run some tests and I can tell you my impressions. It's not a great help, but it's what I can do.

Re: Arasan 20.2
Arasan is actually under the MIT license, so its source can be used as a basis for both closed source and and open source projects.why its not allowed take ideas to implement them in closed source project too

It isn't.Engin wrote: ok, second what i want to say here, why it is everything allowed take ideas from open sources to implement them in open sources again and why its not allowed take ideas to implement them in closed source project too, everybody is complain and declare that taked ideas from SF or other strong engines as a "clone" or "derived from X
Why is taking ideas WRONG ?
What people complain about is forking Stockfish (say), not following the relevant licence and claiming they did all the work by themselves.
Exactly.it is ok to me study and take only ideas from engine X or sharing ideas between others engines, just only not copy whole source or most of them.

excuse me for the stupid question, quite probably I have missed some information available somewhere, but where does the name of the engine derive from? (my first thought would be an Indian tribal head...)Arasan FAQ wrote:
What does "Arasan" mean?
Arasan means "king" in Tamil, a language spoken in South India and Sri Lanka. It is related to the Sanskrit word "raja." The Arasan website header has "Arasan" written in Tamil script.
I hope Jon will excuse me, but with so many strong engines, and especialy the availability of SF, it is easy to skip some engine/info from time to time.
as I did not read it one way or another, is Jon Tamil/Indian? (not native one, of course)
