Subject: Previous no material eval idea

Author: Robert Randolph

As i was doing some thinking and i beleive that no material eval allows for a
much more coarse evaluation (in the majority of positions) which enhances both
mtd and PVS... But in order for this work effectively there would have to be a
dynamic understanding of the position as previously mentioned. Possibly the
addition of a totally sperate quiescent eval... havent worked this idea out yet
fully.

Also the idea of peices with potential energy is no problem since with a coarse
eval, there is a posibility of a deeper ply (more speed in the search.. fewer
re-searches) and the peieces "potential" should be found within the deeper
ply... hrm. More input appreciated :-)
