I don't think I've seen so many people congratulating the #1 program so much in a long time. I understand SSDF does its work because they want to, not because someone is paying them to do it. However, people continue to criticize some of its practices. I would like to thank SSDF for the job they've done, but I would also like to add to the criticism: if Chess Tiger was so impressive on a P90 that you decided to test it quite a bit on a K6-450, why were there other top programs in the P200 list that did not take priority? In any case, I understand that there are limited resources and in time more programs will be tested on the K6-450. My other question is: is the SSDF still limited to testers from Sweden or has it expanded its membership? I think a larger number of testers would allow more programs to be tested at the same time.
