10th International CSVN Tournament

There's a big computer chess event starting today in Leiden, including Rybka, Hiarcs, Deep Junior, Deep Shredder and Deep Sjeng among others. None of the controversial programs allegedly based on (stolen) Rybka code are playing, nor is the (as far as I know) uncontroversial but very strong Stockfish program participating. Still, it will be interesting to see what happens, and it's probably worth keeping an eye out for the opening novelties, too.

The tournament will be covered here, I think - check the entries as they come in. (The last two as of this writing offer further info.)
