Ok:

- Revised GUI
- A new excellent & big book by GM Boris Alterman
- Many significant changes in evaluation
- Preservation of hash-tables across moves
- As a result: Capability of "learning" a position through analysis
- Multi-processor version (Deep Junior) will be sold separately
- Tablebases
- Several other minor improvements
- Underpromotion !

All of these should result in a stronger engine, more useful for analysis, and a
style of play which while keeping with the old Junior style is still new and
interesting.
