from the 'news archive:

January 28, 2005
We have turned on db_purge in preparation for the DB migration to the new hardware. This will reduce the size of the DB and so the migration will go faster. The validator will probably fall even more behind in the meantime. The migration will occur early next week. We will post the time once we have pinned it down

January 26, 2005
Due to recent database problems, we had to turn off XML stats generation for the time being.

January 20, 2005
We're looking for a Certificate of Appreciation design based on the new SETI@home logo. If you know PHP and do graphic design, maybe you can help.

January 6, 2005
The validation backlog is slowly clearing. There appears to be no problem with validation other than the slowness the backlog itself is causing.

January 4, 2005
We are still running a backlog of results waiting to be validated and are looking into it.

If you add the current news from the homepage, we're all waiting eagerly for their success with the DB.

Don't worry about it, Paul. They've got problems at the moment but we'll get credit eventually. :)

Be lucky

That should be fun! I have 104 WU's waiting for validation. That's almost 25% of all my WU's completed. :)

We should cut Paul a little slack. He is a new user and is probably eagerly awaiting his first credits; whereas the rest of us have credits coming and going.

I doubt about this. The number of WUs waiting for validation seems to be growing...

It grew from when he first posted his "woohoooo" post, from 112,000 to 220,000 but it's seemingly slowed growing and just starting to crest and head back down.(got about 120 credits or so) Maybe the Validator's working nicely? Hope the new DB helps as much as we all expect it to.
