For me this is not an important question. I do also not understand
why it should be of any importance which would be the strongest
program in 5 months? I take and test the programs as they come.
And experience show that the difference in playing strenght between
the 3-5 top engines has become very small. It also depends on what
we are talking about: blitz games, tournament games, long time
analysis and so on.
