Yes.

In addition to this, let's get Thorsten's final and best opinion on what the
best CST version is, and where to legally get it.  If it is not possible for CST
owners to legally get it, let's get his impression of the best one to use, that
it is possible for them to get.

Can you do this please, Thorsten?  One post in one place, and all these guys can
write it down on a post-it note and stick it on the wall and never forget.

You have to admit that this is pretty crazy, although you guys are so into this
engine testing thing that I'm sure you will all happily put up with it, same as
you will go to the trouble of setting up Crafty properly, etc.

This is the mirror image of the Fritz book discussion.  Even if Thorsten says
which one they should get, I think that it is honest to test with whichever
version they want, as long as they identify it, although I would hope that
nobody would consider testing with the weakest one, just because it is the
weakest one, for the same reason that I would hope that nobody would test with
the weakest Fritz book.  I would hope that they would take the trouble to get
the strongest configuration.
