Vincent's 'proof' was that 'Jef Kaan can't program at all' That may have been an overbroad statement, but Tony Werten confirmed elsewhere in the thread that Jef had said in the past that programming a chess engine is too difficult for him. The account of this person's program has a high rating on ICC. I think that is sufficient reason to make it a reasonable accusation, rather than a personal attack. -- GCP
