Hello Christopher.Christopher Conkie wrote:Nope.GenoM wrote:IF Fabien says Rybka has too much of Fruit in it, then it has to be GPL-ed, hasn't it?Christopher Conkie wrote:Moreso Vasik. I don't get why you keep punting the "Fabian Boat".but final resolution depends on Fabian, I think
Tell me how Fabian could decide if Vasik's source should be released?
Christopher
Do you agree?
Big no.
Rybka is not GPL. It contains both Fruit and Rybka therefore you cannot GPL it unless Vasik says so. One assumes that Fabian is ok with that but both must say so.
How Fabian would know what Rybka is in Strelka is beyond me.IF Fabien says Rybka has too much of Fruit in it, then it has to be GPL-ed, hasn't it?
Do you agree?
In other words Fabian deals with the Fruit in Strelka and Vas deals with the Rybka in Strelka.Rybka is not GPL. It contains both Fruit and Rybka therefore you cannot GPL it unless Vasik says so. One assumes that Fabian is ok with that but both must say so.
In Pakistan anything is possible......The same way we don't let criminals go back to the crime-scene and allow them to clear up the evidence with a smudge stick.
Learn reading. I didn't say It is OK for me if Rybka has parts of Fruit inside, of course it's not. I said it is not prooven. I also said my personal opinion, that there are strange similaries between Rybka and Fruit.slobo wrote:Rybka also has parts of Fruit, but for you it is OK.
You´ve been smiling all the time, Alex, and now, suddenly, you became so serious and offended. Learn discussing, Alex, without affecting your humor.Alexander Schmidt wrote:Learn reading.

I stop the discussion here, it's totaly useless to discuss with you...
It's boring when I have to repeat myself all the time because people allege something I never said. I don't support any kind of stolen intelectual property. No matter who is affected. But I cannot blame an author for a "crime" as long as I don't have an evidence. What someone said who has stolen intelectual property himself is no evidence for me.slobo wrote:Learn discussing, Alex, without affecting your humor.
I made the interviewSzG wrote:In an interview about 1.5 years ago Vasik Rajlich did say Rybka had about 5-10% Fruit in it. No one took notice then. I don't think he has ever given credit to Fabien Letouzey.
If God had forgotten his plans for the creation of the World and I would have found his notes in a MCDonalds Drive In, I would have felt entitled to give this World to the People. No doubt about that one. Would that have been a good thing to do or a bad thing?Dann Corbit wrote:Suppose that Newton and Leibnitz had invented calculus and kept it for themselves. If someone found their writings and wrote their own book on calculus, did that person do a good thing or a bad thing? In one sense, they did a good thing because they gave calculus to the world. But in another sense they did a bad thing because they took the work of another author without their permission.
I have feelings in both directions and I really can't reconcile them so I won't pretend to have an answer.
One thing that is morally clear to me (but it is only *my* opinion, which is no better than anyone else's):
There should have been honest disclosure of the sources from the start.
Now, that having been said, ultimately acceptance of a chess program depends upon acceptance from the chess community. Every opinion is one tiny voice but the total sum of the voices will average out to something (I don't know what it is).
What I am trying to say is that I do not see the issues as black and white and obvious. I also do not think Mr. Osipov has meant any harm as the original intention, but that is just a guess. At any rate, I am not in a position to pontificate on this because I don't feel qualified to go beyond what I have already said.

Vas didn't say he has taken Code, but ideas of Fruit what is OK.
"21. Alexander Schmidt:
We had our first contact when I had questions about a similarity to Fruit in the search, others found similarities in the evaluation. Some people where a little bit suspicious that Rybka could be a clone of the open source engine. In the meantime it is clear that Rybka is no clone but you used ideas of Fruit (I guess all other serious engine programmers had a look at Fruit too). How strong would Rybka actually be if the Fruit code would have never been published?
Vasik Rajlich:
It's a good question. I don't want to get too specific about which ideas from Fruit I think are really useful, but they fall into two categories:
1) Very specific tricks, mostly related to search.
2) Philosophy of the engine (and in particular of the search).
Fruit could really hardly be more useful along both of these dimensions. Fabien is a very good engineer, and also has a very clear and simple conception of how his search should behave.
Anyway, if I really had to give a number - my wild guess is that Rybka would be 20 rating points weaker had Fruit not appeared."
