Thanks for update, Thoralf!

I have a question. Can you post names of everyone who contributed games to SSDF database?

Recently it's mostly me, Lars Sandin and Gunnar Blomstrand. But if you mean thru the years, it's of course many more, the late Bo Aurell comes to mind.

Hi Tony, thanks for your reply, it helps a lot!

I am trying to figure out for myself (and also for a review page of computer chess testing studies that I am slowly making) whether SSDF testing is an anonymous project or not. Because as you can imagine the trust is different to anonymous project compared to the one done openly by real people. To be not anonymous in my book, a testing project has to publish a complete list of all participants (or make such list available on request).

So I am really curious, is it possible to see the list of all people who ever contributed to SSDF testing?

Thanks, Kirill

It's a big difference between contribute to the testing and to the database.
We were once over 500 members.

Can you tell more about the big difference?

Also, is there any way I could obtain the names of those 500 people?

Thanks, Kirill

That's a pity, no Rybka latest version 2.3.2a in the new rating list :/
