Shep indicates that he has entered CM8000 into one of his tourneys to start in
mid-December: http://sccs.shep.de/

I've just started putting a custom CM8000 personality which I defined (CM8666
Deep) through the Louguet II test series, and I may also do the same for the
native Chessmaster personality. That is supposed to give a rating for the
program/personality which approximates the ratings on the SSDF list.  That may
take me quite awhile because I'm doing it manually, one position at a time, and
there are 35 total positions to test.  So far I can't figure out how to import
Forsythe, PGN, nor EPD positions into CM8000, if that's possible(?).
