What happened to the listing that the Seti Classic site had that would list 'interesting' signals that would be used to further target a specific area of the universe? We're not finding out if all the CPU cycles we're donating to this project are doing any good - the only news we get is about which part of the Seti network infrastructure has gone down this time. I mean - that's why we're doing this - we want some news on what good we are doing...

An interesting signals list for BOINC crunchers as per the one over on SETI classic site is a good idea.

The SETI@home classic list is not updated very often. I am sure that there must be plans to add something similiar for BOINC. Perhaps when the team next have their allocated time at Arecibo the candidates list will be updated.

Okay - I'll ask again...Is there an "interesting signals" listing anywhere to let us know which signals are flagged for additional analysis and who found them??? There was a listing on the old Seti@Home Classic site, but it had stopped being updated in 2003..It's very important the people who are donating their CPU cycles (and paying for the extra power drain!) know this so we know all the crunching we're doing is being used for a purpose! Basically, we're not receiving any feedback...

I believe it is still on the very long todo list of the very busy devs.
