For some reason I had it in my head that this was a USA only tournament!

I could have also have looked at the website ;)

It is a World Championship. You can't do that and make it a USA only event. Well, you can if you are into that crap where they were helmets and shoulder pads that Bob likes so much. :D

The registration form doesn't require that info. It doesn't require version numbers either, so I don't know.

As far as chess skill goes, it should be better than any version you may have purchased as it will run on a cluster.
