Is your plan to have a commercial chess program someday Uri? I have seen many
posts where you say something like, "I am not willing to give away my ideas for
free," and you talk about money (such as in this post), and make offers to sell
your ideas to someone else and get paid a percentage of the profits, and say
things like, "...the public version of Movei, which is free, for now," implying
that it will be commercial at some point.
