Seti: Project has no task available (boinc)
since Yesterday.
Server status indicates to be ok.
What is happening?
I have set my prefs to accept V8 and other taks if not available.

It's been mentioned in the Panic Mode thread- there is some problem with the Seti servers at the moment. Some people can get work occasionally, but not very often. Others not at all.

Aside from donating a lot of money to seti for extra staff and server upgrades, there is nothing we can do from our end.

The problem is on seti's end. The people at Seti are very dedicated, and usually work on the weekend to fix problems. It is early morning on Saturday in California, so hopefully in the next 4 hours something will happen. Worst case is that they need to wait until Monday to fix the problem.
