Hiarcs will be playing. I also know that Shredder and Komodo will be there along with Jonny on its huge cluster.

GREAT news.
I love this no holds barred competition. I know some don't like clusters, but I've always felt the WCCC is about the strongest entity (engine + book + hardware) and this is the chance for creative solutions to bring chess to a new highest level.

Good luck to HIARCS over the next few months as the development of version 15 continues, I am sure you will do well.

Latest version we have. Probably it will change during the tournament. Some weeks we test several different versions.

Last time we could see 14.728b in a tournament. Is Hiarcs 14.728b x64 MP the latest version?
