Questions regarding the MM challenge...

Hi all,
I've visited the memory manager challenge pages on the fastcode project
site.
Hoping that someone could explain more about this:
- I see well known memory managers such as Nexus and others in the
results, many of them having 'failed' validation tests. Where does that
leave their commercial offerings? Does the participation of e.g. Nexus in
the MM challenge mean that Nexus MM is now open source?
(the "MM's in the real world" link sort of implies that all the mentioned
MM's are somehow now part of this project and its output).
- Has Borland committed to include the winner from this
competition into the next version of Delphi?
- I know this is the *fast*code project, but does anyone pay attention
to other factors such as functionality, transparency, maintainability,
code quality? For example I love the 'memory map' function in RecycleMM,
even though it comes at a (performance) price.
- Within the MM challenge, is there a benchmark that measures/compares
anti-fragmentation mechanisms (for long duty cycle software)?
And if so, is there a tool to measure memory fragmentation for each
candidate (including Borland MM), that could be (re-)used?
TIA for all info,
