Sounds like what's become another typical weekend for the Seti project! :( I'm still a strong supporter, but this project is beginning to look like it's held together with spit and bailing wire... Thanks to the team who pulled the weekend shift this time and are working to put things back together! ID: 122845 ·

Looks like the OS upgrade didn't fix the problem(s) though. Not complaining, but it would be nice to see some technical news updates. ID: 122850 ·

Many, many separate issues going on at once. Basically, Classic is fading, SETI/BOINC is swelling, and this is the ugly period when we're trying to hold it all together without adding any new hardware into the fold. It's pretty tricky. Anyway.. none of the problems of this weekend had to do with the UL/DL server and the OS upgrade, etc. - Matt -- BOINC/SETI@home network/web/science/development person -- "Any idiot can have a good idea.

I only got the one work unit and I still haven't been able to upload it to see if it verifies. Now if SETI comes crashing down after it receives my "tainted" work unit, I'll take full responsibility! <img src="http://boinc.mundayweb.com/one/stats.php?userID=531&prj=1"> ID: 122893 ·
