Please don't retire it. My GL7 is so weak I feel too embarrassed to put it 
into Stefan's automated tournament. But I must admit I haven't done any 
work on my program recently which is why I have challenged anybody above me 
on the 9x9.

I also feel that if a new go program turns up then they'll be happier to 
join the ladder than to enter their program into Stefan's automated 
tournament. It is also more exciting to play on the ladder.
