Sandro,
just a question of a more general content. I saw that you didn't comment on the
whole Leiden& Book author debate. Still - could you give your opinion to the
following question?

What do you think about the question that a particular & very successful book
author (like yourself for example) could be engaged to build the book for
several different machines which participate in the same tournament at the same
time? Would you find this ok? Or do you see problems of loyalty or whatever?

If a certain successful book is given to many programs, how fair the competition
is in your eyes from the perspectives of the "other" programs which don't get
the good book?

Finally a question that always interested me as a CC layman: how many % you
estimate the importance of a good book for today's chess machines?

Thanks for your expert's view and good luck for your future engagements.

Rolf
