- It seems to be a "normal" organized program in several c- and header files. I can't find any similarities to an open-source programs I know. The program seems to be written by an Italian, but my knowledge of that language is not good enough that I can decide if the source code is written by a human or generated somehow. Also there aren't any comments, but in total is much better readable and understandable than the Ippolito sources.
- If RobboLitto is a successor of Ippolito then some progress has been made in the regard of stability. There wasn't a single crash in some hundreds games here.
- It comes with a program to generate its own kind of endgame tablebases. At least this part seems to be an original work.

P.S. It seems to be a real monster. In a test at blitz time controls (2+2) it got this results here:
