How do you know who the participants are?
As a potential participant, would you allow it?
Spectators really shouldn't have a say and should be let to those that _participate_ in the event.
Peter I read here as much as you, but you might have some info that I do no not.
So the question is: Why did you single out these two programs from a large list of programs?
This is Sadats SCCT Rating list, now why would you go down this list and leave out Komodo, Critter, Stockfish, Hiarcs, Shredder, etc etc etc.... What do you know that we do not know about clean original code Peter Skinner?
Ok lets just base it on nice, Uri is one of the nicest guys here. No one suspects Movei as dirty. What prove do we have that Movei is clean? Can it enter? On what grounds if you eliminate H and R
Most of the top programmers in the world of Computer Chess cannot agree on the correct wording to describe what original clean code is.
What if your poll returns a no? Are you going to choose another group until you complete your poll?
We do not have any prove that Shredder, Pro Deo, and Crafty are clean. The only prove we have these days is they are way down the rating lists. Will they be allowed in?
What about that aggravating (it started this whole mess) Fruit, it is #28 on this list in last place, do you really think Fruit is as clean as it should be?
ICGA says Rybka is banned because it has been inspected, all other programs are legal to enter until a competitor complains again and then the process of inspection starts over again.
If you are not going to subject all to a drug test, at least subject all to a random drug test, it usually keeps it clean.
All should be suspect to the same degree in a competitive event until proven otherwise.
