Please, Frank, tell John Stanback that everybody here -I can guess that without trouble- is happy and thankful for his delivery of Zarkov stuff and eagerly waiting for Wasp.
I am going to play Zarkov windows 4.1 this afternoon -here in Chile- and I am sure I will be defeated. I am not a 2400 player, at most 2100, so a defeat is to be expected....
What matters to me is to get fun and surely I will get it..
a hug
Fern

Hi Fernando,
nice if you have interest.
John wrote me yesterday that in a couple of days he send the readme and after all I know the test version I have (1.01) will be the release version. At the moment after over 1.000 games I have, no lost on time games or other technical problems. Engine runs very stable.
Wasp is really interesting because the style is a complete other (comparing to other engines). Max. to compare often with SmarThink or Hiarcs (human like style). After all I saw maybe most human like style a program have. I am thinking often ... that must be a human if I am looking the games. Strong after the opening book moves and in endgames without the endgame databases. But it's clear that hightest priority in the future for further improvements is the gaming phase very late middlegame / early endgame. But with the strengths Wasp have it's absolutely clear that the new engine of John have a lot potential.
