I had to go to bed last night and didn't give you more info on that particularly sad incident with Ruffian in Leiden. Anyway, after Vincent's accusations Per-Ola had to prove that his code was genuinely his own and original, which he did: by talking to Theo van der Storm (a chess programmer and director of the Leiden tourney) and by supplying detilas regarding Ruffian and explaining the Ruffian structure etc. He even sent some snippets of code via email to be examined. And, yes. You were right: Per-Ola felt very sad and a little hurt throughout this disgusting incident. Thanks to Vincent's little intervention. Djordje
