The copyprotection is made for guys like him however... the beta will be basically the current diep engine with the icc book. i've been starting recently with some homecooking, and i hope that for an official release (so not selfwritten cdroms) i am ready soon with some cooking to prevent getting killed pathetically and to get my diep some points from book too. Also learning needs to be written before i ship it to SSDF as well as my own auto232 player which doesn't even require to start other programs anymore, i just ship a few cdroms which plays back how screens looked like at both monitors and showing everything including the results. I see personally not difference between that kind of homecooking and playing a couple of tens of thousands of games at home already knowing the outcome as the tournament books are just containing a couple of hundreds of lines that get played with success by the opponent.
