an UCI compliant open source chess engine of the Ippolit and RobboLito series of programs, first released in January 2010 and base of a lot of further derivatives. IvanHoe features a SMP search, Multi-PV, and Chess960 [2], and uses a decrementing versioning scheme. Authors are the pseudonymous Ippolit comrades, Yakov Petrovich Golyadkin [3], Igor Igorovich Igoronov, Roberto Pescatore, Yusuf Ralf Weisskopf, and Ivan Skavinsky Skavar [4].
