Keyano (Othello) - Acknowledgements
Over the years, I have received a lot of advice from friends and associates
on how to improve Keyano. This is where I say thank you to all of them (in
alphabetical order):
- Bill Armstrong (for help with ALN training)
- Bruno de la Boisserie (THOR updates, Courchelettes)
- Michael Buro (Logistello, something to aspire to)
- Jean Delteil (Spock, and Keyano's opening book design)
- Igor Durdanovic (Kitty, and the Internet Othello Server)
- Louis Geoffroy (Brutus, Hannibal)
- Paul Hsieh (QED, Chameleon)
- David Parsons (REV, and for his hospitality at the 1994 US Open)
- Martin Piotte (Hannibal, Brutus)
- Brian Rose (help with QED and Fugazi)
- Colin Springer (Eclipse, many wonderful discussions about crazy ideas)
- Vince Sempronio (Yingyang)
- Marc Tastet (editor of FFORUM, entering Keyano in Man vs.
Machine tournament)
- Jean-Christophe Weill (Bugs, Keyano's "fast" endgame code)
I'd also like to thank the members of the GAMES group who have had to
put up with me and Keyano for the last four years:
Darse Billings, Yngvi Bjornsson, Andreas Junghanns, Tony Marsland,
Denis Papp, Aske Plaat (who didn't complain once about how poorly Keyano was
written in 1994!), and Jonathan Schaeffer (a super supervisor).
