Most lists are amateur, but some are funded by magazines. EHSS below is published by Selective Search Magazine, and the CSS list is from the German Computer Schach und Spiele magazine.

The SSDF is probably the longest running of the lists, with data going back to the first dedicated chess computers of the eighties.

All the lists treat particular software/settings/hardware combinations as separate rating entities, and there are sometimes separate lists for different time controls (tournament vs. blitz).

My point is that this probably won't happen in computer Go but it
happened long ago in computer chess.

Can you point us to info about comparable agency for computer chess? Who
funds such an agency?

Thanks!
