IMO this topic is to hot for talking about it in public. whatever you talk, it will in the end result in offending and insulting stuff. IMO this looks more like a misunderstanding by Karlson. It happens often ln life that people say: "oh - we have not enough time, and even if we would have enough time, we don't have the resources to do this or that." I guess it was a misunderstanding. This is also IMO not interesting. More interesting for me always were the system immanent failures in the list. E.g. it would have been better nor to accept a SPECIAL non standard autoplayer system. the system of donninger, later enhanced and brought into windows stanbdard by stefan works. why inventing the wheel again. there was absolutely no reason to accept another standard that is a pain in the ass for all other devlopers. here is the problem. IMO a system is as good as the will of the involved people to make the best out of it. it would have been a better idea to use the normal stuff that is e.g. in shredder-classic GUI, in CSTal (that was a copy of stefans code), in ARENA or even in all the DOS programs instead of accepting this misleading and idiotic chessbase autoplayer. Not to talk about the engine-engine stuff, that produces strange results due to all kind of stupid commands and behaviour during computation.
