IE no Latvian. No King's gambit. Etc. >For white, it will open with d4 every time. It would be interesting to be able to look at the source-file . I haven't been able to find it so it's probably not posted at your site (or I am too dumb to look :)). Why is that ? I see no harm for crafty if it was posted as your main interest isn't comp-comp play anyway - and if there are serious weaknesses found - this can only help in the long run. Same applies to the source of books.bin to some extent. It would fit well to your open source policy - I also think people would try to modify and make even better ones and post them - a bit like the sharing of learn files that was thought to be of use before.
