Thanks Allard for making the opening book available....
I'll deliver regular updates whenever there is a new release....
Book up to 40 halfmoves,tested throughly and optimized for Spark unique playing style....just for the record 74% of white's move is 1.e4 :D
You can test against any commercial opening book,it will give them a run for their money....
Cheers,

Cool!! I am running a candidates cycle inspired engine tournament where each round is a mini-match. Spark 0.4 is paired against Rybka 4 in the quarter finals. Since Rybka's book can't be used in Shredder GUI i will use the Shredder book. I will let you know how Spark fairs.
