I think that the relative good result of fruit that have only simple evaluation terms(still no king safety except king square table not to develop the king in the opening) and have not special search tricks suggest that writing a program without bugs is the most important thing to develop a top program. I guess that after Fabian adds king safety and some more basic knowledge in evaluation it is going to be better than Crafty of today on one processor and after some imrovement in the search we are going to have in 2007 a free fruit with source code that is better than shredder8 on one processor(if you ignore opening book). I do not claim that it is going to be better than the commercial of 2007 and of course the commercial programs are going also to improve. We are going to see in the future if my prediction is correct. Uri
