I have seen test suite results from various Fritz 6 versions which are
different, and also other rating lists where the ratings of these were
different. File size, date AND performances are different, that's why the labels
old,yt,a-c where invented.

I wouldn't use more than one version (within the same major version number) at
the same time... but it makes sense to keep the results separated IMO, for that
differences are visible.

Currently it looks like 7 and 7a are quite different... let's see if it will be
considered serving the usefullness if their results are combined somewhere on a
rating list, i.e. SSDF. I don't hope so (but I certainly won't call it
"expanding the uselessness" if it happens :o). I'd call it loss of information.
