I do not understand Mr. Howe's attitude. I haven't 'claimed' anything. I have presented pieces and created good programs for them. I have given a commercial site the right to use all my inventions for free. They are working now to implement certain of my variants. I have posted this offer to Unenet groups, too. I wrote to Alga, too, and offered them my Chess Variants for free. I claim no copyright, or no such thing. This is good, as nobody, e.g., no game company, or American individual (who always think in terms of 'ownership'), can claim that they've invented these and prevent others from using them. By the way, what am I expected to do when inventing and implementing all these pieces? I only say that I created 'this' on 'this date'. Then nobody can claim copyright on it, or file for a patent. Then the piece can be used by anybody, also commercially. /Mats
