Hi Gian-Carlo,

of course he did, but he did not improve only by a few rating points. That is
the difference.

So I think it would not be exaggerated to tell that he is an outstanding
programmer. For me and many others a genius. I think most other programmers will
confirm this without envy, as he moreover is friendly and helps others a lot.

Best Regards
Heinz
