Well, same with all programs... I would do it this way: FIDE has a worldchamp,
ICCA has a worldchamp - why not let the worldchamps play against each other ?
There is no qualification needed... okay, on the side of ICCA maybe, because
they have TWO worldchamps, Junior & Shredder... but thats it, worldchamp should
face worldchamp.

Greets, Thomas
