Uh Uriin case you are mistaken, Chess Wizard is not new. It has being around for
quite some time, at least longer than most of the current crop of Winboard Chess
engines. I read about it first in Djordes Vidanovic's website, so it has being
around since 98 at least.

It's not as well known as say Ferret, but it's has being one of the top private
engines in France for quite some time already. If not for Chess Tiger, I would
say it's the top French chess engine. Oh yes and Chinto.
