I agree, not many people test crafty and yace nowadays in serious (private)
tournaments. There are very much capable, and makes these game more interesting
IMO. Also I think using own opening book is a better idea than nunn position
(IMO) because from what i see you are likely to have more double games with nunn
opening, and only sayd how the above programs are string at this type of
positions.

cheers. ;)
