Closed source is always a bad thing, as we can see again.
Still, as it seems to be a pretty good engine for playing. I was told by
many people that they favour it for it's style. Given the fact that the
issue is only a minor thing and as far as I understood it ProDeo as such
is "sort of" xboard compatible and the UCI-interface is only a small
addon exe that calls prodeo in the background...
Couldn't someone on the win-platform just write a wrapper that finishes
the final UCI issues, ie. translate the wrong commands for prodeo?
Something like prodeo_realuci.exe calling prodeo_uci.exe which calls
prodeo.exe?

Most likely they have some sort of exception for it included. What I
think that Pascal wanted to say is that such exceptions make the source
quite ugly and difficult to keep up to date. For a dead engine this is a
point to consider, indeed.
