Does anybody know if there will be any more version of DON or was it a one time celebration of Don Dailey?

Anyway, I quite like this engine, it's similar to Stockfish but seems to play the opening and middlegame a little better (at least in my opinion), SF 4 001 is still better in the ending, but if DON got access to the GTB bases it would probably improve in that phase too.

The author frequently updates the source code. Look at the updates in GIT.

OK, I'll keep an eye on https://github.com/erashid/DON though I can't compile it myself :(

Btw, on the page it says "0 releases", so I wonder where those get published? I found DON 1.0b some months ago, but maybe it's not an official release...

I compiled and publish DON_1.0b,
can find it on my blog (in signature).

Then the author said was derived Glaurung, derived after stockfish.
DON has a branch with support Syzygy tablebases.

I would continue doing relases, but if the author does not fully defined its derivation, can not be. :(
