Steve is not the only one for me CEGT is already a better and more accurate
alternative to SSDF: They test more engines, they do it faster, they play more
games, they use different GUIs, they test the engine capability rather than a
clever designed package (opening book, learning, etc.). The slightly slower time
limit is not a problem or me.
