Okay, sure Guenther,
I understand Moga is not a legitimate GPL engine since Tomasz has not made any
sources and licenses available. I think its author Tomasz has dropped the
project since he also has not posted here for weeks. That is a pity. I think he
meant to comply initially but maybe other priorities came up or he has changed
his mind to avoid any further confusion. I think it is inherent to the field of
computerchess hobbyism (Is that a proper word?), that many people would like to
create their own chess-program to see what it can do, and they like to share
their inventions with the rest of us. That is just because this is a hobby. They
have to start somewhere. And Tomasz Buchta never claimed Moga was his own
creation.
Anyway, I was just curious how Fruit 2.1 and Toga II 1.0 Beta have progressed
since versions 2.0 and versions 0.94 of Toga. But Moga I suppose can go off the
list now, unless one day Tomasz Buchta would want to comply to the GPL
conditions.
I much welcome the possibility of all the new settings for Fruit 2.1 that Fabien
has made, there is enough to experiment without having to make your own modified
versions, for quite a while.
