Pre-World Championship updates planned?

Post by Justin Sherron »

Though I realize the dangers of asking a genuine question on April 1st, I'll risk it.... :)

With the upcoming Anand-Topalov match only a few weeks away, I (and others I assume?) hope to watch at least some of it live with the analytical assistance of an engine or two. With that being the case, I couldn't help but be curious - is anyone planning or anticipating a new release before the championship? Komodo? Stockfish? Crafty? Sjeng? etc. etc.

No pressure intended, of course :wink: I know all the programmers and testers work hard regardless of their release dates. I just couldn't help but be curious in light of the upcoming match-up....

If all goes well, MP version of Critter should be ready this month. Although it has nothing to do with the championship.
