Why VITRUVIUS is not tested by CCRL, CEGT etc?

This amazing engine has an unique dynamic ans speculative style. Why isn't being tested, regardless the fact that comes as an Ivanhoe derivative?

Vitruvius_1.1SE_HEM_x64 is is the latest version, 30 ELO points stronger than Vitruvius 1!! http://www.vitruviuschess.com/article/A ... ltati.html
So the sooner the tests begin, the better! At 40/40 and on CEGT at long time control: 40/120.

Yes, it is interesting information. Along with being complete bullshit.

its certainly an interesting engine; but whereas with Gm's speculative
combinations can work, due to slight mistakes of the opponent
and/or psychology (Kasparov became world champ in such a way)
it not often works against engines as Houdini. But if these
guys -the Vitruv programmers- can conquer the horizon effect in
some way or another, or improve the way they already do it
then i think its a very promising engine.
This is what chess is all about.
