Heh.  You might need to don your asbestos suit, Peter.  ;)

Will Singleton asked the same thing a few weeks ago, and he got flamed for it.
I think YACE stands for 'Yet Another Chess Engine'.

Regarding schedule conflicts, I agree with you.  We should try to be
accomodating, but we will never find a weekend that is perfect for 25 different
people.  I also think we should give preference to authors over operators in
these cases.
