Steve,

This may be strectching it a bit.  I, for one, appreciate the direct answers
Ingo is giving about the pending new release of Shredder9.  Many questions are
valid and very helpful and there are more than a few that have questions about
it.  I did not read much solicition on Ingo's part at all.  It's better than
asking Chessbase.


Personally. I don't see a problem having questions answered on any new releases
of any chess software or related products, whether solicited by the authors or
their testers or not.  As long as it's not flagrant self promotion, which it was
not, it simply prepares everyone that wants to make the purchase aware of
details or changes.  And of course, pricing is always on everyone's mind.

I welcome Ruud to tell us what he has along with the costs and methods of
purchasing, or anyone else.  DHM
