Thank you for the friendly review.

To answer some of your questions:

Vanessa Chess doesn't have an opening book, hash-table, or null-move heuristic.
It credits Chrilly Donninger because the move-generator and some of the tree
search is taken from MiniMAX. The rest is written by myself, but unfortunatly
not to the advantage of Vanessa Chess (MiniMax calculates about 150.000 nodes
per second on my G3, Vanessa Chess only about 50.000).

But I will continue development.

Regards

Manfred Schubert
