if you have these results, than i´m right that shredder 5 is far away from
beeing the best. to be the best indicates to be better by minimum 30 elo than
all others.

stop! i claimed better than fritz 6, not 6a or 6b!
in the chessbits-rating list he is 117 points above fritz6!
we do not divide into f6 and f6a and f6b. the games of f6 and f6a are melted
together. i´m not happy with that, but it was not possible to handle in another
way, because fritz saves his games only under fritz 6 and not f6a.
