The amazing thing is not that they are hard or easy to build.  The thing that
leaves me slack-jawed, buggy-eyed is that the problems are made public and yet
do not get fixed for years and years.  How hard can it really be to stop sending
"new" on each iteration?

As to hard or easy to do it right...

Tim Mann got it right and he does it for fun, part time.

Why is it that the professionals, with nothing better to do with their time than
write chess programming code stuff, seem to be completely unable to manage the
same?
