I sure do that. At the moment i have no plan to release it as it plays very weak. It is hardely able to beat TSCP. But if it gets better i will sure do so because i would enjoy other people jusing it. Also i plan to implement the old Chess 4.5 evaluationfuncion to see how that would stand among the present engines. It is WB compatible but 100% yet.
