1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Mitko Iliev, Fons van Hamond, Lennarth Eriksson, Lennart Ootes and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Magnus Carlsen leads the Qatar Open by half a point from Vladimir Kramnik (who he plays tomorrow) and last year's winner Yu Yangyi. Carlsen has had up and down results but this year has been one of the most active ones by a world chess champion in memory. Qatar is the strongest event of this final part of the year but there are many other interesting traditional opens as well in a packed issue. I wish everyone a happy and prosperous 2016.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark
