I have "seen":

- Jan stating a while back that writing an engine was to difficult for him
- His handle having a high rating on ICC
- Jan claiming he has written the program that uses this handle.

I have also seen:

Jan explaining that the engine that got the high rating on the handle is
different from the engine he wrote himself now running this handle.

Let's not make too big a deal out of it.
