Why must a WU have, for example, a Dead line up to 06.10.12? An event of Seti Germany stands in a queue and there this time should be held very short. What does the nonsense if I on Mr. Pending use to me must wait? Who does not create a WU in 14 days, the same guilt. It is dispatched the WU once more. Where does the problem lie? |

So old slow computers can still be productive, complete those Wu's within deadline, and get Credit for doing so. Claggy |

Do you really expect the project staff to mess around with WU deadlines just because SG's WOW! of event? This event is "just for fun". |

So old slow computers can still be productive, complete those Wu's within deadline, and get Credit for doing so. We also have volunteers who work as crew members on trans-oceanic ships, and even submarines. It can be expensive, or even impossible, for them to contact the project servers until they reach dock at the end of the voyage. That can be weeks, even months, away. |

You are right everybody thus. |
