Comments from Don :
Jim Ablett is working on the next komodo release. Before it's out I want to say something about it.

It is to be considered a beta release. I do not want it to be officially rated yet until I know that I will not need to make any "bug fix" releases. Of course if you want to run informal test matches feel free to report your results.

My primary object is to shake out any bugs, primary with various user interfaces on various windows platforms. Does it crash on your tester? Does it lose on time, etc...

I am calling this release Komodo 1.3b1. The official 1.3 release may have additional ELO improvements if we find any between now and then that will not affect the interface or usability in any way.

Our private testing shows this release to be 50 ELO stronger, but your mileage may vary as we have only tested at extremely fast time controls. I think it's more likely to be about 30 ELO.

Don
