I did not say that using games of other people to build the book is cheating.

The problem begins when the source code is not my source code(pgn files are not
something that need a special programming).

It does not mean that I will never use it and I do not say that I will never use
a book that I did not design but if I do it then I do not feel that the program
is 100% my program.
