I assume programming or chess programming ideas is what he meant. His posts here after Rybka want commercial became about marketing, not discussion with other programmers. If this is what people what to see, and I think it is what many of the fans want at this time, I see no problem with it expect for the charter issue that I assume Vas did not know about. If you want the marketing back just change the charter, the programmers will just move to a more relevant forum to discuss ideas. Ryan
