It looks as though the server components (splitter, transitioner, feeder, scheduler) are now keeping up with demand.

July 19, 2004
We have brought up an additional transitioner to try and cut through the backlog we have accrued

August 04 2004
It seems that that the feeder was in fact not feeding the splitter although the scheduler was transitioning correctly. We have brought up a new feeduler to keep up with the transplitter demand.

August 07 2004
Our data server stopped working at 0543 AM and unfortunately our backup server who has been modified to be use as a new splitioner couldn’t keep up with the demand. We have lost all the processed data and we plan to install a new schedudeeder in order to resend all the WU again.

September 23 2004
The entire backlog work unit has been sent out to users but we’ve just realised that it was in fact the same work unit. The transchedudeeder seem to have allocated different unit number to the same work unit.

We are completely lost and really out of work units. The funding is getting harder to find and we haven’t been able to use the Arecibo antenna since January. We have been asked by the American government to continue sending out Those work units to fanatic crunchers to avoid a civil war. Works are currently under way to install the new scoobydoodeeder to resend those work units.

Good news! ! ! We finally found an alien signal. Thanks to all of those who helped in the search. The signal was found in the same work unit sent by the schedandoodeeder to millions of users! ! ! After deep analysis of the signal here what it says. HO HO HO !

I have to appologies to the Boinc team. It was realy just a joke. I know you are working very hard
to make run smoothly and we appreciate. I made this and tried to be funny for those who have no idea of what a splitter, transitioner, feeder, scheduler, are. Your news message is chineese for them.

Best regards
Marc
