People assume that UCI and WB are 2 protocols where a simple translation will
suffice. That is not the case, both have very different concepts and design.
So, Crafty WB to UCI could be almost impossible to get, unless you
accept and UCI version that does not ponder as crafty, does not have the same
time management as a consequence, does not learn as crafty and does not do
many other nice tricks. Some of those things might be translated (others not)
but it might take a LOT of work.

Just curious, what's the point to have an UCI Crafty?

Miguel
