I'm really no chess expert but I'm afraid, if you take those positions after
move 15 from GM games, every program's book will be prepared for it... or do you
mean just using the engine without a book? Then there's no need to take
positions of most recent games.
Maybe it would be best, if computer chess developers and publishers would let
create a small, high quality, standard opening book to be used for such
tournament and comparison purposes by every program. But of course this will
never happen, because I'm sure some hope to catch an opponent in a opening trap
they prepare...
