Harald,

I probably haven't been doing this as long as you, but I have learned that I
don't "bet" on the outcome of any tests.  What I will bet on is that we may be
sure the unexpected can and will happen!  If you are asking whether I think
Shredder8 will win?  Yes, but I won't bet on it!

From my own engine matches with J9 and DJ9 on Playchess is that Junior9 is more
than capable of embarrassing any program.  What is interesting is that you can
play the same program against someone else with completely different results.
This is what keeps my interest, as do your tests.  DHM
