Ok. If the author is not interested in participating can someone else enter their program?

Dan,

Looks like it.

Unfortunately FruitFly won't be playing this, due to a slight performance defect.

I reply with a quote to the first part:

The second part is IMO ambiguous, do you mean fruitfly or the tourney?

Yes, they can. Ray Banks, for instance, often plays with Critter, Crafty, Gaviota or Trace. And Joshua Shriver has participated with Mathmoi and Faile. Gary Belton sometimes participates with Rybka.

Ok, thanks.

@Matthew, I just wanted clarification on "everyone" which HG answered.

Just for the avid fruitfly fan(s) out there, Richard Allbert is going to play with another engine on his spare core. I do wonder what it is...
