In addition to my mentioned line, black has an interesting alternative. However, at some lines I am a bit uncertian if the annotates in pgn file are correct since I am not an endgame expert nad neither are my engines. Does anyone here know of a good and free endgame engine? Also the annotations are not double checked so there might be some errors.

I have meet this line at internet two times since that article was posted. However after Nxd5 Nxe3 the both diverted by playing different moves where I could have got a slight edge in the first game that I actually managed to lose after a terrible blunder and too aggresive play in a equal position and won the other game from an equal position after the opening after a blunder by opponent.

Quick look indicates that they think that grabbing the exchange is to ambitios and that black appears to get strong compensation for the exchange. Dzindzi recommends instead 13 Nxd5 claiming a slight advantage to white that I fail to see, but Rybka sees it since black has a double pawn in a opposote coloured Bishops scenario.

It's the Kb1 stuff, focusing on the ...ef6 line. I'd post more, but I haven't looked at it in depth yet.

It appears that New In Chess Yearbook 94 has survey about Dragon with 9 0-0-0 by Van der Tak.

I ordered a copy today, I will post a review once it arrives. I guess that line discussed is either about 9 0-0-0 d5 10 Kb1 or Experts 12 Bd4 line.
