Hi Albert,

normaly this is right because Nimzo 7.32 used endgame databases.
Nimzo 2000b is after my information 4 days older. Only one or two other
parameter if I understand Chrilly in Leiden 99 correct. But I believe the
strongest version is WB Nimzo 2000b, available on the Millennium WM Paket 2001.

Nimzo 2000b and Nimzo 7.32 are for me a very little bit stronger as Nimzo 8.
Also interesting is a very late Nimzo 2000a version (not the 2000a version on
the Millennium CDs). On the Millennium CDs is WB Nimzo 2000 and WB Nimzo 2000a
the same version. For a WinBoard tourney we got a newer Nimzo 2000a version and
this version is also very very strong. I believe we play with this newer 2000a
version in WT_5 tournament (Kai Skibbe and myself for 2-3 years).

Nimzo 2000b is 100 ELO stronger compare to Nimzo 2000a and the same WB Nimzo
2000 version, and also stronger as the newer Nimzo 2000a version with Chilly
private send for WT_5 tournament. Chrilly created in this time x WB Nimzo 2000a
versions :-)

Hm, I hope easy to understand what I write here :-))

The sympatical programmer (Chrilly Donninger) must work on his program because
on Winboarder wish list is standing a new Nimzo version ...

Best
Frank
