Oh yes,

in view of Vincent's long story and his many excuses why "Diep" did not
fare too well again (no hardware excuses possible this time), I like to
add that meaningful *testing* is obviously a crucial part of program
development -- not only in computer chess.

If people decide to enter a world championship with an untested program,
this is fine with me. But then, they should also stand by their decision
and accept the blame in case of severe failure instead of whining about
their immature and buggy code. It was their own independent decision to
employ it in the first place, wasn't it ...
