OK, I understand. This is indeed the kind of story (thoses legal
battles) I'm really sorry to hear about.

For me, computer chess is fun. I keep on working on my program only
because it's a lot of fun, and a lot of satisfactions. It seems that
some people in the computer chess world carry a lot of hate and
"negative vibes". It's not philosophy or spiritual stuff, it's just that
they make things worse for everybody, just to serve their personal
interests.

It's a pity. I hope I can stay out of this... shit (sorry for the word).
