It's just if someone writes "Considering how you deal with those who helped you graciously with hours and days (or weeks!) of work before you decided to try to get some money from these largely collective efforts, I think that the computer chess community should be aware of your way of acting." then it seemed a natural question to ask. If I did completely miss your point then forgive me I am still looking but having no luck. All I see is that for some reason you decided to leave after CCTBlitz05. Whatever you choose to do in future be it with Gambit Fruit, Toga or some other program I wish you much success. Sarah.
