Nice job! I have updated my list of strongest programs to match.
(Assumes all MCTS programs are stronger than all classical programs.)
http://senseis.xmp.net/?GoPlayingPrograms%2FDiscussion#toc8
The remaining strong classical programs you're missing are KCC Igo
(Silver Star), Haruka, and Go Intellect (Goddess on Windows). I think
Wulu is also still available for purchase.

More than ten thousand games 19x19 Go are played in my computer Go
Tournament -
time to again publish some results!
Please have a look at my newly created site for results and more
informations:

All these games are played on my home PC (Windows - Intel Pentium
IV - 2.6 GHz).
Until now I focussed on the classical programs,
so GOEMATE 2001 from Zhen Zhixing and GO++ 7.0 from Michael Reiss
are still the top engines here.
Recently I added a newer version of Peter Woitke´s program SUZIE
for 19x19.
This engine works with pure alpha-beta tree-search and a position
evaluation function
like most of the classical chess engines do and I think it is most
remarkable how much SUZIE
improved in last years without use of MonteCarlo TreeSearch
techniques.
SUZIE 0.40 finished third and seems to be nearly as strong as the
older version of Go++ 5.0.
Then FUNGO 2000 proved to be only a little bit stronger than the
tested
GNUGO versions 3.7.10 and 3.7.11 but weaker than GNUGO 3.7.11 on
level 15.
I now see that GnuGo v3.8 is released
and plan to replay most of the games with this newer version as
soon as possible.
But first I finally want to let play the 2008 Computer Go Champion,
MANYFACES v12 by David Fotland.
This program offers two different engines and I want to include both,
the classical but also improved engine, level "4 Kyu", still with
alphabeta-TS, to replace MANYFACES 11,
and the even much stronger MC-TS engine, level "2 Kyu".
Than I really would be glad if I could invite more of the actual MC
programs out there
like MOGO, CRAZYSTONE, ZEN, FUEGO (possibly I could use the windows-
executable
of v0.32,SVN799 compiled by Ben Lambrechts!?), LEELA, ... and more
to participate!
All kinds of questions, comments or suggestions are most welcome
and highly appreciated!
