I see no reason to complain that new programs are not included. Ruffian is too new to be tested with enough games to get a rating and I think that the ssdf are right to test only programs that the programmers ask to test. There are a lot of free programs and I see no reason to prefer ruffian. If the ssdf test ruffian and do not test other programs like yace people may also complain that the ssdf as a swedish orginization prefer swedish programs. I do not say that this complain is justified but everything that they will do people may criticize them. Maybe it is better if they stop to test programs and give you to do the job instead of them.
