Subject: Is REBEL 12 the predecessor of REBEL XP?

Where does REBEL 12 fit into the scheme of things?  Going back a few years it
was REBEL 8, then 9, then Century, then 11, then 12.  Is this correct?  Where
does REBEL XP fit into this scheme?

Also, can anyone tell me what is the lineage of Galdalf and ChessTiger?  I have
the impression that these programs stemmed in some way from REBEL and have not
charted independent waters in their evolution.  For ChessTiger, I believe it
started out as a way to tweak REBEL to enable it to play beter against fellow
computers.  Is this true?  And furthermore, I think Gambit Tiger sprung from
ChessTiger as a way to play even beter against other computers.  As for Galdalf,
I only know that he came from Tolkien.

If there is anyone who has clearly in their mind's eye the family tree of the
REBEL/Tiger/Galdalf products, could you perhaps post a small mini-review about
it?
