Subject: Experience of chess programmers

Author: Russell Reagan

I'm interested to learn what the programming experience is of people who have
written strong chess programs.

For instance, what did the commercial engine authors do before they were full
time chess programmers? Were they professional programmers in another field?

What about people who have written strong amateur programs? Do they work as
professional programmers, or have professional programming experience?

Even if you don't consider your engine strong, I'd still like to hear what kind
of programming experience you have, even if it's, "I learned QBasic in high
school." That's where I started :)

Thanks,
Russell
