Description: strong chess engine, to play chess against
free chess engine derived from Glaurung 2.1. It is a chess engine, so it
requires an UCI (universal chess interface) compatible GUI like XBoard
(with PolyGlot), eboard, Jose, Arena or scid in order to be used comfortably.
It is the strongest open source chess engine by october 2009 in the
"computer chess rating list" CCRL. Written in C++ it uses multiple threads
and cores. It is capable of Chess960 and has experimental support for polyglot
opening books.

Toscani, thanks, all I had to do is enable the test repo, and I now have 17-0.1.

Thanks for getting me to check.

+20 Elo, WOW now it will take me 10 more moves to beat Stockfish. If Stockfish get just a litte stronger now it won't require my help anymore to analyze it's games.

@StockfishNews The last question ("Generally would you prefer Stockfish to distribute resources equally between the lines, or would you prefer that worse lines had fewer resources assigned to them?") can easily be misunderstood the way it is formulated, because a lot of people that don't know much about engines could think you mean all existing lines, not the number of lines you've selected. You could have wrote "these lines" instead of "the lines" for example, to make that clear. When drawing conclusions based on this survey, keep in mind the answers on this one might not represent what you actually want to know.

I'd rather want an engine_wrapper.py to see the z-scoring confidence values of the top moves.
