The author openly admitted of it being a clone. The users know it, and they have the option of choosing to use it or not. It's not a recent trend or anything. It's been like this for a long time. Sjeng started as a clone of some other engine (orcourse it's not the case anymore). So have many others that I can't recall at this moment. Unless the Author is claiming it to be original and going commercial with it, it's not the end of the world, IMO. Cheers, pavs
