Since you are something of a maven where novel openings are concerned, I thought I would seek your wisdom regarding the following.

I recently came across a Web site having a section called "Avant Garde (wins by Black)" featuring a lot of games with an unusual, hypermodern Black defense, which incorporates ideas I had been toying with recently, but which I had given up on, not being skilled enough to make them work against a strong chess engine. (Before I found the Web site, I had just assumed that the ideas were something unworkable I had come up with.) The basic final opening position (for Black) -- looks like this:

What is this opening, and where do I find out how to play it (books)? These games are classified B06 but that is far too vague. The Web site is:

<Eric Schiller> i post this here though it's from <Ray Keene>'s site. I think it's quite interseting to see you justifying your and excusing for your religion.

What happened on Keene's site: There's obviously a malinformation on Wikipedia stating he was jewish. He is not. That's all. Of course, might sound starnge to emphasize this but he tries to put it into persepctive by making clear that he has jewish friends and acquaintances. So he doesn't feel insulted by being called a jew but it's just not true. As if they were stating he was female - nothing bad about being female - but just not true.

So what was the context: Reliability of Wikipedia.
Not what <Eric Schiller> thinks about <his> religion. What does <Eric Schiller>'s statement he was jewish by ancestry and not by religious practice have to do with Wikipedia?

<At no point can it be inferred from his comments that he is a 'self-hating' Jew.>

<Ray Keene> said that some of his friends were jewish, etc. to make sure that he didn't have anything against jews or something but that Wikipedia had wrong information. That's all.

Eric didn't just respond saying he was jewish but also made this distinction and put great emphasis on the distinction itself. The question i was asking is: Why did he feel like having to distinguish between his jewish ancestry and his (non existent) religious practice?

<Eric didn't just respond saying he was jewish but also made this distinction and put great emphasis on the distinction itself.> I don't see the 'great emphasis.' <I am a genetically the products of Jewish ancestry but I have nothing to do with the religion> Is it the latter part of that sentence? I don't think he means 'I have nothing to do with...' in the sense that he turns his nose up at it. Indeed, he made this clear. <Not that I have any prejudice against those who choose to follow that particular religion>.

No, it's the other way round - you see something that isn't there. First, the context of <Eric>'s statement regarding judaism when there was none. I already explained why <Ray Keene> came up with this topic (due to the Wikipedia article on him). Second, i never said or though or insinuated <Eric> took <Ray Keene>'s comment as a slur. This was completely out of question.

<Is it the latter part of that sentence? I don't think he means 'I have nothing to do with...' in the sense that he turns his nose up at it. Indeed, he made this clear.>

I based that on you saying:

<Do you think there was any reason to state that as if <Ray Keene>'s statement had damaged your reputation?>

<I'm actually asking why he felt he had to make this clear> I don't think he felt he had to make it clear. He said it as a point of interest for Ray.

White's development is very classical - almost to the point of naivety. Central pawns on e4 and d4, knights on f3 and c3, bishops on c4 and f4, kingside castling and R+Q on central files - it's something like a textbook from 100 years ago would give as an example of ideal development.

Black, by contrast, is totally hypermodern. Both bishops fianchettoed, knights on e7 and d7, 3rd rank hedgehog-style pawn shield with ...a6/b6/d6/e6/g6/h6. Once again, something of an exaggeration.
