Alex said this, Frank said that, so what? Much was said, by many, about Vas and Rybka, remember? A lot of evidence was presented, comparing chunks of code, and were not the results of all this inclusive? Where is that kind of evidence and comparison in this case?

Kaissa was by Yelin. It was closed source. The UCI parser...... Read it again.

Chris, its a pity that an authority like you can talk such bs statements (that KAISSA author is Yelin) in public...

Simple Google it and...

Only, the one by Yelin is called Kaissa2.
In a logo? Yes. In the engine or by the author? No.

Yes, you are right.

Still, how can we know which of the two Kaissas was referred to by the Impolite team?
You can't, but there is a lot of mileage in the theory Gabor. The politics, the disaffected attitude, the language. Of course it could be wrong, but if ever there was a character profile of someone that matches Yelin, it is the Ippo guy.

Also there is the UCI parser, the lack of time controls, losing on time. With an open mind you have to say there is more than a little coincidence.

It was made very clear in the Rybka forum it is a clone, there's even a sticky about. They don't allow discussion, which is understandable, given that every Ippolit download can hurt Rybka sales.

Calling an author (which does identify himself, unlike the cloner) a liar and then demanding that he explain in a way that you can understand (which is nontrivial and would take quite some time) just exactly how you know the engine is a clone (which will unavoidably pinpoint some key tricks/differences in Rybka) is UNRESPECTFUL OF YOU, not Vasik.

Why is it the job of the honest author whose work as stole to meticulously explain how the thief did what he did (thereby perhaps helping other thieves)?

I'm telling you: it's not.
Why are you putting words in my mouth :!: :?:

Show me the post where I said that Vasik is a liar,the only liar here is you who is putting words in other people mouth....

I also didn't say that Vasik is unrespectful,again you are making things up.....I said that his silence is unrespectful toward the fans of Rybka....

As for the proof,empty stupid statements without solid grounds can go directly to the recycle bin....

So,to summer it up,either you don't know nothing about this issue and talking nonesense,which I strongly suspect,or you do know something and you want to keep it under your hat,which I doubtly believe....

But the more laughable is the fact that I see people warshiping a piece of software and it's maker and are ready to believe anything he wants them to believe in without bothering himself to respect them and give them clear answers when a major issue like this surface the computer chess scene....

Have fun with your new religion....

It was the same with Strelka. No matter what anyone says people are just going to do what suits them. In the very first post about Strelka you were all told what it was and it's origins. That did not stop long and very boring threads like this.

As to hero worship of Vas? No. I believe what I see and if I need to be reassured about it, I ask various people who probably know even better than me.

Amen

Christopher
I understand all of this Christopher,but to clear myself a bit I'll give you an example:

Remember when Fritz 12 appeared on the market and you as a client were not satisfied because it's full of bugs,the engine's performance is disappointing,etc....well you can say that my feelings here are similar....
I've purchased everything Vasik has thrown to the market and I gave my money with a big smile on my face....I've been waiting for a Rybka 3 bug fix for....wait,I can't even remeber....IIRC,it was supposed to be Rybka 3+,right :!: :?:

I didn't have my updates as long as all the other customers and now when I demand a simple statement clearing up this whole mess,what happens?....an author of a mediocre strength commercial chess engine is literly attacking me and putting words in my mouth....

Makes sense to me somehow Christopher but I agree with the statement of Uri Blass that the person in question lacks the abilities of doing something like this....by abilities I mean technical abilities....

Well yes,but my intention was attached to this very situation we are talking about....not in general....
I don't believe Vas anymore when he says that the engine X that appeared in the period Y is a clone of Rybka without a proof....

These were the words of a younger Deeb, Wael.

However, what I don't like is GCP's term 'honest author whose work was stolen'. Is it not what is yet to be proven?
Yeah Gabor,the doctor is getting old :?

As for GCP,he also believes without a given proof for the sake of fellowship,I can understand that....what I can't understand is his arrogance showed here in this debat....
whatever regards,
