Roberto Pescatore seems to be a common name.
Do you think it is a coincidence that Roberto Pescatore is a Spanish transliteration of Bobby Fischer ?
Good spot. It is indeed.

:)

Christopher
It is not :), it is an Italian surname (In Spanish would be "Roberto Pescador") :P

Correct. Like Strelka, it appears the gaps have been filled in with parts from other programs.
Not sure what you mean here. Rybka was actually _even closer_ to Fruit than Strelka was. There were only a few differences really, and in almost all cases Strelka was just simplified a bit from Rybka.

Of course, Strelka 1.0 (which I still don't have actually) had an xboard parser from Beowulf...

So, according to your statements, you're probably think that you have a right to offend everyone without any proof. And after it you're saying something about justice? :lol:
Oh, there's lot's of proof. Ippolit is a well known clone. Anyone argues differently is a clown.

Attack of The Clone Clowns Regards... 8-)

Interesting proof. But unfortunately I never said that Ippolit is not a clone.
What else 'evidence' of stoling something by me you have?

Oh, really, I forgot one. At Ippolit page you see some cyrillic texts.
Also it's probably, that at some time some men from the Russia steal something. And also in the Russia was Stalin (he was from Georgia, but he was in Russia).
And I'm also from Russia. So, it's clear that I am a thief.

This is your evidence?

Here it seems the opposite, i.e. Rybka 3 seems to have some differences where Ippolit uses Fruit code.
