I have now accepted unofficial entries from
  Fuego   using the name 'FuegoAl', operated by Aloril
  GNU Go  using the name 'GnuGoAl', operated by Aloril
and hope to receive one from
  MoGousing the name 'CzechBot', operated by Petr Baudiš.

I welcome these, as I want to see these strong players take part, and
so, I believe, do the other entrants.  However they are all willing to
step down to make way for official entries from these same players,
particularly if the official entries are able to use more processor
power - Aloril's Fuego will be running on two cores and his GNU Go on
one.  I would even welcome unofficial entries for GNU Go and Fuego if
these would be able to use more processor power than Aloril can, and so
would he.
