I see nothing there that answers his question?
Eran wrote he understands why Shredder isn't playing.

Stefan writes;
"I see no reasons to have another computer chess world championship and another
computer chess world champion besides the ICCA tournaments and the ICCA champion
so I will not play there."

Don't this new statement contradict his earlier post;
http://www.icdchess.com/forums/1/message.shtml?165291

"I have received from the ICCA President David Levy a copy of an open letter
concerning the Kramnik match. I agree with all the points of his proposal and I
agree to participate in a qualifying match for the right to play Kramnik
according to the terms of the ICCA."
