HAwkeye 1.03 Released

I'm not sure if opening another project is the best course of action. Maybe if all these efforts went towards adding to basil's (the first one to retake Gull) we'd have something better how.

This project has gotten a license contrary to the philosophy of ThinkingALot.

It's just the MIT license which applies to the new code only. The reason for the MIT license are: (1) declaring a work to be public domain is legal fiction in some places, and (2) to add a disclaimer of liability. Aside from that, there is no practical difference.

The main problem are (1) I am not a chess engine dev, and (2) I do not have time to be a chess engine dev But I am hopeful someone will pick up Gull and turn it into a superengine...

One of the main problems was the fact that Gull's source code is completely opaque. Tom Hyer's version is cleaner so it should help.

Already has a license public, so others is entangled and create confusion.
The same goes for Ronald de Man Syzygy, used by even Engines commercial and opaque.

Put another license also create confusion, does not seem legal.
