You need to understand chess programs are never cast in concrete. Authors are always striving to improve them. If they wait to publish their programs until perfect they would never get published. Remember too, it is a business, we enjoy their product so we buy, so once a year or less often they do publish what they call a new program. You know what ? It is just another improvement (usually, but not always) on the previous one, but now it is given the next integer (usually) identification and walla we have a new program. Simple no ? Wayne
