Are you only angry at Jeroen because he did get this much response?
If you make a compilation of openings books you will get some difecultys
Because 1 openings book blocks 1 line and the other will block a diferent line
Leaving not many openings as playable
Jeroen also tried to build up a high standard theoretical book
and not all openingsbooks are based on theory
But sometimes tuned for the program.
Like I mentioned in my first posting
