With Internet Translate: Rybka is a project, with a goal to summers 2006, which the programmer already admits gave! Now, I am not a beta tester. Why? So far none asked me for it. But I test gladly, I test gladly also Rybka. I found some BUGs in Fritz and I never a Fritz nevertheless given got. Why should I buy therefore not also Rybka (I have it made) and it to test? If I tested Fritz quasi in vain, the more now therefore Rybka is to me because of the heart! With other programs that does not have to do anything, because I so far by no team in demand whether I beta testers to be would like. A team I asked, but said "No". Translate is difficult, also here my german original text (damit keine Missdeutungen entstehen): Rybka ist ein Projekt, mit einem Ziel bis Sommer 2006, das der Programmierer schon bekannt gegeben hat! Nun, ich bin kein Beta-Tester. Warum? Mich hat bisher keiner danach gefragt. Aber ich teste gerne, ich teste gerne auch Rybka. Ich habe einige BUGs in Fritz gefunden und dennoch habe ich nie einen Fritz geschenkt bekommen. Warum sollte ich deshalb nicht auch Rybka kaufen (ich habe es gemacht) und es testen? Wenn ich Fritz quasi umsonst getestet habe, umso mehr liegt mir nun daher Rybka am Herzen! Mit anderen Programmen hat das nichts zu tun, denn ich wurde bisher von keinem Team gefragt ob ich Beta-Tester sein möchte. Ja ein Team habe ich selbst gefragt, aber die sagten "Nein". Happy New Year! Eduard. On December 24, 2005 at 13:29:16, Rolf Tueschen wrote: >Hi all, > >I have observed that people are busy in testing Rybka like bees produce their >honey.
