Hi Sarah ,

I am curious which is the supposed way to deal with opening books in an CB-event
like this one .

a.) Do all engines use the same book ?

I assume probably the ones who don't have an opening book of their own will have
to use some uniform one .

b.) Do they all get their own copy of it ?

This sounds very space-consuming and can lead to confusion easily but else
everybody has to live with the learning results other engines wrote into the
book ( which might not be what suits the program very well ) ; Let's say Faile
played 100 games with the Fritz-book against Hiarcs and the next one to get this
book is Fritz6 ; will the learning of Faile help Fritz ?

Or

c.) Do you disable book learning ?

I think probably c.) is easiest to solve the problem while b.) probably is the
way it is supposed to be done when you want everything 100% perfect.
