And the oldstars need years?

Internet:
Very good sites about programming are available.
Maybe a reason to create, with new ideas, very fast a strong engine.

But I have here a complete other opinion.
The engines by the oldstars are better with years.

You are sure!
Your work is important for the group of interesting people.
We have 300 or more chess programmers and the most programs are freely
available. For me is not important how strong is a program (playing style is for
me important). Movei is one engine of the big group of engines and I like to see
if persons make a little bit for computer chess.

- to test a little bit and wrote in fora ...
- to create a program, a webpage or try other things ...

I will say that every work is important and with the medium "Internet" we have
more chances to make our hobby more public. Movei is a free program and a lot of
persons have fun with your program. This is important ... allone this is
important!

Furthermore, I believe Movei is an interesting engine but I have not enough time
to make a test at the moment (to many things to do with Arena).

Yes, I don't forget your games.
Last year you sent me your games.
I wrote that I will try to make comments and you have sent me the games.

My problem is my free time.
I have family and I am very happy in my private live. I have not more to many
time for chess  and if I start my PC I have a lot to do with Arena development.
I like this work for Martin Blume but I am not allone at home and I have so many
ideas to used my free time for interesting things, e.g. analyses ...

Uri, please send me your games another!
I will look in the garden and will added comments if I find the time.
(yes, I like it to make analyzes and to play eng-eng matches)!

I hope I understand your note!

Best
Frank
