I guess that chesstiger is going to be number 1 in the ssdf list.
I guess the difference will be less than 100 elo but more than 30 elo.

If you look at the results of the ssdf list you can see that the results of
tiger are better than other programs.

I do not count tournament like paderborn and the NL-ch because opening
preperation is more important in these tournament relative to ssdf games and I
count only the results of the ssdf.

I did not calculate the exact performance of chesstiger but I see that the
performance of tiger against Fritz3(p90) and fritz532(p200) is clearly more than
2700 and it played many games against them.

It had a slow start against shredder2(p200) but now it starts to win
I guess it will be the first program with more than 2700 ssdf rating.
