Ippolit questions

[Harvey Williamson]

Nobody had heard of this clone till last week when it was advertised here although it was known to a few.

Yes i also wonder about this. Why now? Although there should be some time anyway but i wonder if there was something particular reason for this time.

I will search of who did the first post here about Ippolit. He perhaps will know why he posted that and where he did heard about it and why he decided to post it this time.
Do you happen to know who was it and get me out of trouble?

Yes The most striking thing I think is that the people who made it sent Vas regular updates by email of their progress.

Really? Why do you think that?
Do you happen to know Vas opinion about it when he was receiving the emails? I find it extremely bizarre this to happen. Not that there is something in this case that seems logical.

No I don't know who made the 1st post. Vas did not mention it at the time as, rightly, he thought no publicity was best. However the Cloners were so proud of what they were doing in decompiling his code that that they thought they should send him regular updates.

Maybe Vas will decide to share some of these gems!?

the hackers were even kind enough to keep me updated via email.

I wonder if the CCC Charter would allow commercial authors to get this much free advertising here?

i guess some would consider any discussion about any engine as adverstising ...
there was a post last week about the History of the Hiarcs engine
free advertising i guess

the fact that some complain we are allowing any discussion at all combined with those that complain we are not allowing direct linkeage means the mod team must have struck a good balance on our moderation philosophy
nobody it seems is 100% happy with our position

You may as well allow the links, as you allow people to suggest what to google, and put in the CCC Charter that our mission is to drive all honest commercial authors out of business.

Glad to see the moderators take it seriously.

yes
its been a real disco party for us
i would guess that my PM's-Emails are roughly equally divided
50%-allow links or we are suppressing free speech
50%-squelch all open discussion as we are promoting piracy

I think you'll find that it was Vladimir Medvedev this time around. When J.Wesley Cleveland first posted about Ippolit back in June, his post was quickly deleted.

That sounds about right. I would guess 50% of players on Playchess have downloaded commercial engines for free. Loads of Clones deleted from Playchess, in the last week, but clear instructions posted on a German forum on how to rename it as Rybka 3 - kind of funny if they do that as someone went to all that trouble to make a clone and then have the engine renamed as Rybka 3.

The award goes to Chris Conkie I think. Easy to overlook since he misspelled it

Like it? How to say something, yet not say anything.

Cool
