Hi Graham & Heinz,

I have only just spotted this thread at 0400 in the morning here on my way out
to work. I was going to ask how would the rating list look if Rybka was taken
out it seems Heinz is going to do something similar.

As far as testing settings goes I agree with Enrico Hypermodern + normal should
be tested as a second test option and then only as a third option should
Hypermodern+Aggressive be tested.

I hope this makes sense as its very early here and I am half asleap.

Best Wishes

Harvey
