I thought Robert uses another book...
I though also it is on his site...
The book Dann genetated is brand new and Maybe bob will use this book, or import
 over 3 months the CAP-scores to his book (Maybe Dann is so polite to enhance
his book also with the new CAP-data)

>2) How does Crafty use the CAP tags to decide what moves to make?

If CAP-score is >= 1.50 then ! will be added (move is preffered in comparison
with normal move)
If CAP-score is <= -1.00 then ? will be added (move is avoided in comparision to
normal move)

No, not reailly. There is now knowedge in crafty if will take 3 times out of
book before book moves will not be examined. So if Crafty jumps out of book and
then in.... then Crafty and also CAP-data is used again.

No, I hope it will in future
