Hello all
you can download a new DanChess at the link below.
It is certainly better in test suites compared to 1.05 but
but only God knows if it is better in actual games. Some tests
suggest it is better in endgames.

Please give me the e-mail of God. If he knows if a new version is better in games he could help us very much by improving Spike

Not a bad result for DanChess
Daniel, should I use the public version instead of 1.06f for the next games ?
