I must writing an eMail to Bob, it is not from me. And then I will looking in the code for hash-table and winboard configuration, looking that I can make this better or not better. When I copy the complete chess program from Bob is this not my chess programm this is an copy and this is not interesting for me, because it is not my creation. And when I copy 50% is this not my chess programm. When I copy logic configuration (hash-table and winboard configuration) then is this not an copy from Bob´s crafty then is this an big help from Bob`s Crafty. Why I must then all this make new when this is for an chess programm logic (my example with hash-tables and winboard configuration). I don´t know what Gabriele Müller make in Voyager, but I think this is not an Crafty. And when this an Crafty is, this is not fair and then I understand Bob, but Voyager is an private programm an experimentel private program. I writing many eMails with Gabi in the last year and Gabi make an new version and writing this is new and this is better or not better. This person working with passion on this projekt. In the tournament which I play with Christian and Kai we will play with freeware and private programs. This is good for found errors in the games and good for the programmer ! And I am happy when I can help ! The results are interesting but not so importent. This is my last statement and I delate Voyager not from this tournament ! Kind regards Frank
