Glad to hear about new servers coming online in the coming weeks. That'll be sweet.

I set mine to only crunch AstroPulse workunits, but when AP was no longer available I switched back to send me anything.

I've got no job and haven't worked in like 7 months, but I've got a $100 for this challenge.

Good question, I'm curious as well.

3.2ghz dual core crunches AP on average 55-65 hours.

My idea starts with a question. How much of a presence does seti have on the berkeley campus? I notice that there isn't a seti group on campus. Why not try to get some of the kids involved with the project and have them on campus raising funds?

Also, while looking around on the berkely site there are only two links on the entire site to seti. Maybe you guys should request a larger presence on the site.

Would that also include the boinc program? Couldn't we put something for the top company in the seti graphic?

I haven't come up with any new ideas, but I thought it was worthwhile to keep this topic up towards the top. Instead of being about to go to page 2.

Just curious to know if there are any other Mainers out there and to see if there is any interest in making a team? Get back to me.

So it would seem that the problem is too many results coming in too quickly? Wouldn't it be possible to create a bottle neck that would only allow so many results coming in at a time and the rest would have to wait until the way was clear?

Thanks for the update Matt. I wonder about this problem that keeps coming up. Is it because there isn't enough hard drive space? Or because the servers aren't fast enough?

Thats awesome. Seti needs all the exposure it can get.

I'm mostly worried about what they haven't thought of as far as escaping reactions. I have to wonder if large scale tests will send out unwanted signals into space that may be perceivable by aliens. Strange thought I know, but you never know.

Now that it is the next morning and not 2am, I have been watching the webcast so it is of course up now. Though by the previous post I may have just gone to bed a few minutes too early.

Big surprise the webcast still isn't up. I saw mention of them using evo, but halfway through setting evo up I got too freaked out and stopped. Weird program with many errors on pages and incorrect certificates. Seems a bit strange for a multi billion dollar project to use something so cheap.

Vista is a program mainly to help with anything helping low income or youth or really any good community effort. You find a vista employee you like, they train them, and you staff them at half their pay while vista pays the rest. The great thing about a vista is that you could have them looking for and applying for grants full time 40 hours a week looking for funding and donations. Depending on your local vista office you may be able to talk them into getting you a vista. I'm bringing this idea to the team at seti myself since I know a bit about how this might go down.
