No small wonder, the book's >creator is a super strong Fide Master, the author of Diep: Vincent Diepeveen. 1) How could you know that Diep has "an impressive positional play"? How did you draw this conclusion? 2) It is interesting to know what book you are refering to because the last public Diep Version was in 1995-1996 and this Version was 1.5... As far as I can remember, this version had a Dos Gui and I would like to know how you could automate the match. 3) If you did not use this old Diep Version and you are refering later to a newer version here: http://www.talkchess.com/forums/1/message.html?320878, "That was the stock book that came with Diep, ver. 2.*..." How did you get this newer version, because it was one of the last Winboard Diep Versions in 2001? Did you paid for a Diep License to get this version? Or you were a Beta Tester for that time (2001), since I have been the Author of the Diep Book for 2 years, I cannot remember that Diep has mentioned you as a Beta Tester neither lately. So, I am still wondered how you can refer to a Diep 2.X Version. I paid for my first Diep Winboard Version but I cannot remember that Vincent has mentioned you as a Diep Formal User. 4) If you have this book, I can only remember an old book of eccentric openings in 2001 that I created for Vincent only for fun so how you got this book? 5) If you concluded that the book was fulfull of irregular openings, why didnt you request a better opening book to Vincent Diepeveen and now you post this doubtful Match? 6) A correction: I have been the Diep´s Book Creator for 2 years and Vincent Diepeveen has payed all the attention to the Engine. Therefore, your last information is wrong. You should verify better the sources of your informations. AO.
