The most substantial change is a new book format to take advantage of the
C.A.P. data from Dan.  I don't know exactly how this data is going to work
out in helping with the opening book, but the book format changed to make
room for the new data.  Rather than have 16.19 use the old format, and 16.20
use the new, and continually fill my mailbox with questions about why my
book won't work?  I am just changing the major version number to solve the
problem.  :)

There are other changes as well, including the new pawn majority/candidate
stuff a particular GM has been harping on for several months. :)
