Re: TCEC should reconsider the ban on Ethereal

Well so all this is clearly insanity. So I will just say the following:
I am the author of Ethereal
I am listed in the authors file of Stockfish
I am an approver for fishtest, and regularly do so
I have made direct commits to Laser to improve SMP, as well as efficiency
I have talked at GREAT lengths with Nitrocan (SCTR / Defenchess), and helped to improve his engine (he has done the same for me)
I am also even now listed in the Xiphos repo, citing Ethereal as an inspiration / tool / whatever, in his development.
There are not now, nor have there ever been, any questions as to my interests and intentions in this community. If so, I would not so aggressively associate myself and improve other projects which are direct "competitors" to my own.
I imagine only the troll in this thread feels otherwise, but I think enumerating my activities should be clarify anything for those in doubt.
