Well, my engine is pretty much after the protocol standard so any engine that
follow this should work.
I would also look into problems if I get emails from engine-author's that would
include it with their engine and have trouble to get it to work.
Since my test prospects is rather limited I don't think I would engage me in how
to get CM to work and that sort of questions (except if this comes from JM :) ).
