Posting great results of F6.x engines can be interpreted as marketing. But is
there anything wrong about it? Everyone does, one way or another. I posted
results of several beta engines, including Tiger during the last months, and  I
was not the only one. My purpose had nothing to to with marketing, but some
people interpreted it this way. Big deal. Others publicize a "world
championship" obtained after a 7 or 11 round Swiss tournament, as if such a
title would mean they are best, etc. etc. etc.

What's so strange about marketing being done by companies that put a product in
the market?
