The last attempt to figure out what system FIDE is going to use to determine the World Chess Champion that I saw is here - http://chessbase.com/newsdetail.asp?newsid=3948 I don't think things went as planned (gasp - horror - how could that possibly be with the excellent administration from FIDE). Has anyone seen a more recent explanation of what is going to happen? If so where. All I know is that Vishy is the current Champion and that World Cup and Grand Prix tournaments are supposed to somehow determine a challenger for the next WCC (which I think will be a match - not sure if it is 2009 or 2010).

I know that this isn't the normal place to post this, but let me ask again? Why can't any citizen of St Kitts and Nevis play in the World Chess Championship? I can't get anything but personal attacks from a Russian murderer, Kirsan Ilyumzhinov, concerning the size of my PENIS. Nobody in several Carribean nations can even play in the World Chess Championship, at all! cus Roberts Permanent Delegate of St Kitts and Nevis to FIDE

Actually I think the diagram on your link is still correct with only the mexico part of the diagram already played, Anand won that tournament and is the current world champion. The world cup 2007 takes place from 22 november - 16 december In 2008 Kramnik gets his chance to regain the title in a match vs anand, this will be the world championship match for 2008. Also in 2008 there will be a match between Topalov and the world cup 2007 winner which is a qualifier match to play for the wordchampionship match in 2009 against the winner of Kramnik-Anand. And from then on the challenger for the reigning worldchampion will be decided by a match between the world cup winner and the winner of the grand prix tournaments of the past season.
