This won't work. Here's why using your (i.e. CW's) current method of attack:

1) If a signatory makes himself number one by violating the agreement, the accusations will never stick because they'll be written off as professional/financial jealousy.


I consider this more of an ethical debate than an attack against anyone.
I wouldn't be surprised if a large part of the top 10 engines use disassembling as their main "source of inspiration", there are even those who talk about it as though it is the most natural thing in the world.

My impression is that it's probably also one of the fastes ways, if not the only way, to get a top engine without deriving from others. Afterall who can deny that two brains are better than one.

2) You'll never prove it because the cheater can pull a Vasik and lose his code. You'll never see the code, and you won't disassemble it because you think that's RE which is either against the law or unethical.

3) In any event, Chris Whittington won't let you enforce the rules ( because rules are for fools ).


Proving is hard with or without disassembling. But there is also quite a bit of difference between using RE selfishly to improve your own engine and using RE as a tool to expose a suspected cheater when he can't or won't let the sources be inspected...
