Whether it is proven or not is a matter of opinion, depending on what level of proof that you require in order to start calling someone a liar.
Ray, that is not even in dispute. But more to the point it's not relevant to this conversation. We should avoid that because it would just degrade into the same as many other threads and would not longer even be interesting to discuss.
Capital punishment would be more effective as a preventive measure if it were administered prior to the crime.

RobboLito is a derivative of Ippolit. Ippolit was supposed to be a hacked version of Rybka. Rybka started as Fruit…

Well it is true. Chessbase is a respectable company who would not be selling products that even had a hint of illegality. And I bet all their customers don't give a toss about its origins.

The copy of the copy of the copy... Wow!

I had stopped at the "copy of the copy", has now added a new dimension and things become very complicated... I look forward to exciting new combinations (StoccoLini? RobboKomo? CraftoLito? ...Fantastic!) :D

I think it's fantastic to have Vitruvius, Saros and Akkad. Do you plan a new clone/derivative Roberto? :wink:

I was always clear, since the first publication. I have never denied... My father! :lol:

Speaking of clones in this situation is ridiculous, and it means that you have not understood anything!

...If anything, there should be expressed with the powers: clone^2, clone^3, clone^4... :lol:

Not a criticism Roberto, but I reckon you should stick to developing Vitruvius further and forget about your other efforts. One Ippo based engine per person is surely enough?
