The homepage says this:




 Chess System Tal Version 2.50 pre-alpha version for download only by bone-fide
chess program developers who have
 already purchased a copy of CSTal II..CSTal II support files are required for
proper operation.
 CSTal 2.50 forms the basis of Oxford Softworks designs for Chess System Tal
III. Chess System Tal III will be an
 open-format multiple engine, N-Brain and user interface system, using Windows
95/98/NT. Operation is fully Windows
 compatible and multi-threaded.
 CSTal 2.50 comes with multiple engines and N-Brain engine choosers .. This
version is a sampler, Oxford Softworks expects
 to release open-format source code for any bone-fide developer to use to:


          add engines to CSTal III


          display information from an added engine in the interface


          allow for development of intelligent N-Brain choosers


          add chess position specific elements such as opening books, end game
table bases, king-pawn handlers,
          middlegame handlers and so on.
