For whatever reason(s), there is not a problem with Shredder's rating being
published, but there is a problem with some of the others being published.  It
seems unreasonable to refuse to report the rating of one chess engine because
you disagree with the licence agreement of a different engine.  I suggest that
the SSDF take what it can get and publish Shredder's rating in its lists, now
that they have permission to, and continue to lobby re: the other engines.
