it is said there: In ChessBits 3 we have started a test to research the effectivity of the tablebases in several programs. For that we used some positions of the "Nunn endgame test". The magazine CSS and its publisher Vögel did say that we have touched their copyright and they were prejudiced. When we announced the second part of the research we have got the following reaction: "... In the last issue of your magazine you have announced to publish the second part of this article. On he supposation that you once again are using parts of our copyright protected stuff we forbid you to publish your article... we will use all our possibilities to protect our copyright. You have to pay the costs:" At the moment we try to reach an agreement with CSS/Vögel. But this is not very easy because they haven´t hold agreements in former times. So we don´t want to disturb the negotiation we don´t publish the whole case now to show the "honesty" of the colleagues. Maybe they are coming to their senses. ---------------------------------- why is computerschach and speile attacking chessbits, i thought this new magazine is doing a great job. What is their fear ? aren't there enough customers for all ?
