No, it's up to the consumers, but I have an opinion.

She would be high on my list when it comes to credibility. But I wouldn't
consider her review of Rebel Tiger II, if she makes one, to be more significant
than yours regardless of content.

I just want you to describe the functions implemented in Rebel Tiger II and
their strengths and weaknesses, ie. various features of GUI and how it
complements the engines. Perhaps a comparison with other products on the market
would be a nice touch if you can be objective in your description. That
shouldn't be too difficult.

It's not difficult to be objective if you explain what a product can or cannot
do. But there's also subjective impressions as well, which isn't a problem as
long as the person is independent of the product and explains that it's his
opinions alone. A reviewer is a consumer too. At least in principle.

>no - it isn't.

Whether you can buy the product or not is actually irrelevant since you're
involved in the development of the product.

Neither do I. I can't stand eating anything that once had feathers :o).
