So many chess engines became so strong last year. I suppose the reason is the open source code of Fruit. Now every more or less talented chess programmer can build an engine that is at least as strong as Fruit. (Take the Fruit code and change it, that it can not be called a Fruit clone.) Very talented chess programmers could be even stronger by combination of the Fruit knowledge with their own experiences. I believe, if the Fruit code were not open than Fruit would be strongest engine now and Shredder were the second. Please understand me correctly. I want only express that the author of Fruit is the real hero of this revolution in computer chess. I dont want to degrade the achievments of other authors. Best Regards Stefan Schiffermüller
