However this is a GPL project and you have to respect free software philosophy: Alexander do not have the rights to delete the code (nobody have, even the code you don't like, i.e. Pascal's code for docking, don't deserve to be deleted for no reason).
I will release a Scid v.4.4 with the current git code and eventually the fixes for bugs and crashes that will be reported. I will release a Scid v.4.5 with a new gamelist window I will release a Scid v.4.6 integrating your engine tournament feature I hope that this will address the most complicated differences between the two projects and i want to be very clear: i'm not against you taking the lead of the scid project, but you have to follow the free software way.
