Within the last couple months, Beowulf and Gerbil were released. Neither one is particularly strong, but with what they offer as far as examples in Chess code, I think it's pretty hard to dismiss them just because they may not be cutting edge. They may help educate the people who might be cutting edge 5 or 10 years from now. So they're nothing to sneeze at. Pete
