It's pretty useless; And why would you think we're interested in the first place?

Hi Jaimes,

Thanks for the update. I'm sure that if true about MP support, it will be interesting to see how well it scales, as well as to what strength improvements we might see. Also will be looking forward to seeing if the program will still use their own tablebase format, or will use the Nalimov tablebases. I would be most surprised to find out if it is now a UCI engine, but would settle for UCI support to be added in addition to the Winboard support that is already there.

Imagine Hiarcs in the ChessMater GUI without the need for UCI2WB! It could happen, if it will remains to be seen. Last but not least add support for FICS or ICC even, but please Ubisoft kill off your chess servers. That has been the biggest joke of all. Not a great choice of players to pick from for games. The most I've ever seen was 30 online at one time.
