About 18-20 months ago, IIRC. I'm an awful C programmer, and my code deteriorates alarmingly quickly when I hack on it for a long time. If I continue doing chess programming, I'll probably have to keep doing complete rewrites every couple of years or so. The current rewrite cannot be compared to the Gothmog -> Glaurung transition, by the way. Gothmog and Glaurung are two rather different programs. Glaurung 2 will be very similar to Glaurung 1, just cleaner, more compact, and probably with SMP support. Tord
