Im sorry to say, but the reason nobody seems to care is that CSTAL is a
weak program. Yes the program has its good points. But when you look at
the whole program it does not play strong chess. It does not play well
against strong humans or computers. The only reason I know that people
like it is because it does play a human style and the program is
beatable.

I think CSTAL is a bold step in computer chess programing. I hope the
program will keep getting better.
