As competition leader i have the bad habit to be busy a lot with
ratings and such:

Dutch national list. Everyone that plays national competition, yes
even someone playing regional competition nowadays is in the national
rating list. Also people that play tournaments are in the list anyway.
Further a rating doesn't get away. Someone being a member of the
dutch computer chess club, also is automatically member of the
dutch national chess association, and if he plays somewhere he has
a rating therefore.

Here the programmers i could find:
