SETI@home status page
[As of 20 Oct 2004 19:40:04 UTC]

Now it is 22:55 UTC (GMT) and the status page is over three hours outdated.

As far as I understand, the PURPOSE of a STATUS page is to GIVE CURRENT STATUS of the servers. Which means the SETI@home status page does not meet its purpose except for very long outages.

I think it is a minor task for seti@home team to make status page a status page and keep it automatically refreshed slightly more often.

It is now 2329 UTC, and the status page says 2320 UTC. That is pretty much up to date. Have you tried refreshing the page when you get an out of date status page?

Sure, several times. I would not dare to comment if I did not.
