Why should we NOT see a Shredder 9.01 free >release based on some knowledged learned from IPCCC? Sure would be nice. Maybe after the match against Hydra...:-) Well, do not forget that we cannot test against Hydra while they do and they have no money problems at all to test with any kind of harware. If we will improve the program, as we are planning, we may will make a Shredder 10 new realease or an upgrade to 9.0 as Stefan will decide later... First we need to improve the program and beat Hydra...
