I am also part of the handful of people in CCC who can't understand code
analysis or anything with code. Could you please explain to these few what you
did in your analysis? You say that you can get details of a program's code if
you have only the exe? - A question in that context would also be, if you could
clarify if LIST (Graz) was a Crafty clone or at least if it used parts of Bob's
code? Would your answer be also relevant if say some critics still claimed that
they had data that LIST in fact were a clone or used parts of its code? - Thank
you in advance.
