Harald: What can be more important than to see if a modern program can or cannot mate B+N? One more step and you say it does not matter if a chess program cannot mate in no way. IMHO, it is one of those basic features you cannot miss. Then, is not a matter of asking tester to discover ALL bugs or voids, but at least to check some esentials. Worse: this is not a bug, but a VOID. Not something running badly, but something that does not exist at all. I believe the silence of Theron about this issue until now is a kind of recognition this is something to be fixed very quick and not something to be dispelled just like that.. Fernando Fernando
