From the first link, because this thread is about a top tier engine, not about a circa 2000 Elo engine according to the readme of the second link.

Merry Christmas to everybody!

Regards from Spain.

Thanks, Jesus, thought so too anyhow, yet wanted to know, if there was anything else in common between the two engines besides the name. Of course I could try to read the code of both, but I'm not so good at that.
Merry XMas to you too!
Peter.

I haven't seen any of the other engine authors in the discord channels accusing the Obsidian author of doing anything wrong, so that must say something to you, considering that it's open source.
Have a link to any comp chess discord servers? Thanks in advance if you have them.

It's not part of the OpenBench community, but of a fork of OpenBench...
