Hi Tord,

yes, the best version list should only contain the best version. I had not a lot
of time today for editing. Will be done tomorrow. I think I will also only
include best three Chessmaster settings and put the others to a special settings
list like proposed by Wilhelm Hudetz.

Glaurung will also be included in the next Blitz rating list by Sarah. Here
mainly Chris Tatham played the games. But I still do not know the exact result.

We will see if Glaurung will not improve anyway. Next opponent is Movei
00.8.335. Just started.

Best Regards
Heinz
