Dann,

OK - so this implies that Fruit is not doing just Null move (R=3) with ETC,
Check extensions and check in first ply of Q-Search.  Are there other tricks
that Fruit is using to reduce the size of the tree or improve the branching
factor?  I did notice that Fruit seemed to be getting though the plys quite
quickly.

>He is going to release the complete package with source code shortly.

Looking forward to it!

Thanks for the reply,

Steve
