I think I was clear about why. IMO any use of SSDF in this event, touted as a
kind of world championship, when its seemingly an ad hoc assemblage of programs,
albeit chosen by such esteemed personages as Bertil and Enrique, will damage the
reputation of SSDF. I think that without SSDF all we will have is basement
tournaments and the occasional championship, and thus even less information to
base our purchases of chess programs. My reason was that simple, pure
miserliness. As for your ad hominem on my motive: How could I possibly be
jealous of a person who has had to spend so much time tending computers as
Bertil?

PS Rajen, you should be careful when making assumptions, they often tell more
about the person who made them than about their target. :) DS
