Hi Graham, if you are serious I can ask Jeroen Noomen.
Of course, but I think he's more invested in helping out TCEC.
The job is simple (at least for him), gives us sharp openings without being lost as in the case of the 88 I mailed you, How many do you want? He will do it.
90% of coding is debugging, the other 10% is writing bugs.

Thanks for the lines you sent. i'm still working my way through them.

If I could get another 150 lines, I'd be able to go through them and get many more for the Active book. :P

With most of the gambits, I prefer for the engines to start thinking as soon as the gambit is offered.
So as an example, the only Kings Gambit line I use is 1. e4 e5 2. f4
