It's a draw but Black has an edge.

Bishop endings are the most difficult endings for computers.

Yesterday I removed the a pawn pawn from a recently dicussed position:

[D] 8/8/1p5p/5k2/8/2p3P1/1b1pK1PP/3B4 w - - 0 3

and played it out against Fritz 8, just for fun:

[D] 8/5K2/1b5k/6pP/1p4P1/2p5/3p4/3B4 b - - 0 36

Is any engine able to see a draw score?

8/5K2/1b5k/6pP/1p4P1/2p5/3p4/3B4 b - - 0 1
