From Travis: RPI is having some cooling problems with the machine room that milkyway is in. Hopefully it'll be back up soon. Mods-please leave this up and I'll red-x it when it comes back up. |

Thank you. Now I can go to bed without fearing nightmares. But...ohh, the withdrawal symptoms! |

Thanks Blurf (and Travis). /subscribed The difference between 0 and 1 is greater than the difference between 1 and 1,000,000 |

Milkyway has been offline for 4 days now, and counting. This time it isn't their fault, it's down to the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute to sort their computer room cooling problems out. Depending on what the problem(s) actually was, it may have been one of the following: (1) Waiting for parts to arrive (2) RPI not authorizing overtime work on weekend, due to a) Low budget b) Low priority - only a science computer center, no lives threatened. They'll get it fixed and back online in due course. Donald Infernal Optimist / Submariner, retired |

Milkyway has been offline for 4 days now, and counting. This time it isn't their fault, it's down to the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute to sort their computer room cooling problems out. Classes out for summer break, building not needed, no need for cooling ... |

Based on the milkyway history 'milkyway' & 'soon' should never be used in the same sentence ;) Too bad that it is the only science project in BOINC that can use AMD GPU by default. Luckily Folding@home works just fine. |

MW's board is back up. No new work yet. |

check MW@H again - the "tasks ready to send" just jumped from ~5,000 to ~30,000, so you may be able to get new work now. i can't verify this b/c MW@H is currently suspended on my host, and i won't be able to resume the project until after work - about 5 hours from now... |
