We can compare Van der Wiel results to the results of other players 4 years ago.

It will be interesting to calculate the performance of the players who played 4
years ago against computers(you can give every program rating that is equal to
it's performance against humans for the calculation).

We can get an estimate for van der Wiel's rating against computers by this
calculation.

 So he played only 1 game with the current programs and on current

We do not know it and the only way to know is by doing a match.
I know that another dutch player(piket) won Deep Junior on p700*8 with black.

I think that the only thing that is missing for a match between Deep Junior and
Van der Wiel is a sponsor to pay for Van der Wiel.
