Tanya, I just wanted you to know that I'm writting my own spanish/portuguese
checkers program for over a year now. I've played matches against Dynamo Pro, my
program (named Profound) is much stronger mainly because it is more recent and
benifits from ideas and explanations of these good persons from CCC.
I might send a version via email to you if you want.
