Hello Christophe,
I must say at first I was put off by your arrogant tone and bragging about Chess
Tiger being better than Crafty.  After reading all the above post I've decided
that this is just your personality.  You are essentially a very straightforward
and frank individual.  You seem to say what you think without regard to others
feelings.  I can accept that. Sometimes I wish I were more like that.  Bob is
another one who is frank and open at times.  I do not wish to see you two get to
the point of "hate".
Pretty soon Chess Tiger will be available commercially and you will begin to get
the criticism that comes with everyone using your program which you charge money
for.  We will also see if it can really play chess as good as you and some
testers claim.  In other words you talk the talk and pretty soon we will find
out if you can walk the walk.  If you want to be the Muhammed Ali of chess
that's your choice but soon we will see if you can back it up as he did.  I hope
you can and I hope Chess Tiger is the best program around.  We shall soon see.
