Hi Heather,

    WU's don't expire. You will always get credit for WU's
regardless of how long you've had them

Hi there,

I have a question about the age of work units.  I run a caching
program that
caches 15 work units.  II'm wondering how much time I have to
get those
downloaded work units processed and get the results back to the
SETI server
before they are considered lost, and the same work units are
given to a
different user to process?  I don't want to cache too many, but
on the other
hand, I want to be able to sustain processing over long periods
without an
internet connection.

Thanks,
Heather

WU's
