HCE bug status and stability?

Post by stolowski »

Hi,

I'm considering HCE and am currently exploring this forum to get a feeling of how stable and reliable it is and what support can I expect after purchase. It seems to me that HCE 1.8 was released almost a year ago and looking on this forum, it still has some unresolved bugs in the basic functionality (such as 'Suggest move' bug mentioned earlier in the forum). I saw some statements about bugs fixed in 1.9, but no release date has been announced and in the meantime, a major upgrade 2.0 is planned for spring 2016.

Is there a known timeframe for bugfixes and 1.9 release? What are your observations regarding stability, reliability and support? Purchasing HCE (or any other chess software) is a substantial expense, and I want to make sure I make the right choice :)

Thanks,
Pawel
