  Hello,
the program of the French Chess Federation is excellent,
but it is use is only national (the database of all french players
is provided with it).
When I did a period of probation to be arbiter, the french director
of arbiter exams told me he had a very difficult example of pairings
and he believed that the program would make a mistake at the last
round (he did not try the last version) But I tried the last
version at home, and the pairings of the last round were perfectly correct!
  Best regards,
   Sylvain
