Well, I think if only one program can play against Kramnik it should be the
world champion.
If more programs can play, then all the best ones (considered best) should play.
It is because the world championship is the most important tournament, so the
winner should have this right.
I always thought this even when the champion did not have my book!

I fully agree. The best would be to be able to have more than a program so that
more programs can do it.
I am only saying that in case only one should this should be the world champion.
