Question: Which one of Fruit, Rybka and Shredder will be strongest at their next
non-beta release?

My bet is Fruit. Here is why.

Fruit made giant leaps in the past. Why should it fade now?
Rybka hid in the dark for a long time and emerged as the greatest. But I don't
think it still has the potential for a great improvement. Somme search tweaks
and some more endgame knowledge will translate to more than 50 Elos.
Shredder 9 was only moderately improved compared to Shredder 8 (if my assessment
based on what I have read is right). And it is old. Without some new
revolutionary ideas it simply cannot gain too much.

So once again: 1. Fruit, 2. Rybka, 3. Shredder.

What do yoou think?
