I can give a lot of names of programs that were not tested. Some examples: 1)Francesca(the only first division program that was not tested) 2)Arasan(second division) 3)Exchess(second division) 4)Beowulf(second division) 5)Gaviota(second division) 6)Inmichess(second division) 6)Resp(third division but is going to promote and probably better than a lot of second division programs) 7)Knight1.75a(playing in thethird division) 8)Ant(playing in the third division) 9)Movei(my program also third division) For the divisions see http://wbec-ridderkerk.nl/ You can find in the history pages a lot of weaker winboard programs Some examples from the 4th division: 1)Ufim 2)Gerbil 3)Faile 4)Monarch Uri
