Hi Sandro,

this is a topic of interest to me.

So you say we have:

better engine: 40-50 points
better learning feature : ? - OK, let's say 10 points ?

So your special book over a default GM book ( 5.32) is 20-30 points .. ?

IMHO that's good work, others probably disagree.

But another question: how about your book against no book at all ? ( Few tests
on this topic : recently someone did Yace against Yace with no book and the
no-book version even won the contest).

Did you do any tests in this field or were your above numbers guesswork ?

Regards,
pete
