It is not a personality, it is a new engine. But I understand your point.

So what should we do?
People have complained repeatedly that beta testers of Fritz7, Nimzo8, Shredder5
and CM8000 have not been allowed to write reports about these new versions.
Fact is: have you seen a single game played by these new programs? A single
match result?
So we have decided to allow the beta testers of Rebel-Tiger II to write about
the beta test stage.
Now we get complains because we have an open beta period policy???
We have not asked the beta testers to post messages about the new Gambit Tiger.
They are free to do it or not. They did it because they appreciate the new
program's playing style. Because it's DIFFERENT.
It's strange. If the games had been played by a new version of Crafty or a new
CM personality, I have the feeling that nobody would find irritating that they
are posted here with lots of hype. Why?
