No, it doesn't by default. There are plenty of examples to invalidate that theory. The interesting bit is the actual development time. You can make an argument about how long it'll take to develop an engine of a certain strength. But even that becomes subjective rather quickly (ie. pure guesswork) as you can't exclude the likelihood of immense talent, nor avoid the fact that sources are available in abundance nowadays, be it papers or source code. The discussion is, or becomes, rather tedious without an actual executable to confirm or support various allogations. That isn't foolproof either. Regards, Mogens
