Nest, Bruno Bras' first chess program, which played the 10th WMCCC 1990 in Lyon. Like other newcomers, Nest was plagued by all kind of teething troubles, including bugs and omissions that were fixed overnight, only to be replaced by new difficulties the next morning [1], yet even it put up a good fight and earned 1½ with three draws.
