4. Killer Draughts - Walter Thoen

Krzysztof,

Maybe I misunderstand, but:

1) "Killer Draughts" does not exist; it's still Scan
2) I'm co-author (obviously?), see Horizon for instance
3) it does not make sense to include a killer-draughts program in a tournament with normal rules; for me, it's similar to including a chess program

Fabien.

[Krzysztof Grzelak]

I understand and change program Aurora Borealis Professional.
