Yeah, spoke too soon. I just got another three X6 units showing

Yeah, unfortunately i don't get anything but x6 units. I have set my
cahe to 12 days and only ever get two WU's and i have an completion
time for each WU of 3hrs 50m.

12 DAYS! Is that the minimum or the maximum?
You are getting close to the 2 week time limit for returning units.
After 2 weeks a work unit expires, it is called "report deadline"
under the work tab on each work unit line. If you return a unit after
its deadline you don't get any credit for it. If you have some of
these you might want to consider resetting the project. I DID NOT SAY
TO DETATCH, I said RESET! There is a difference! In reseting you just
lose all work units in your cache but you don't actually change
anything, in a detatch, you must then re-attatch.


Surely the client would be smart enough to not bother processing expired
WU's? I mean, the expiry time is right there for the client to read. You'd
think it would purge the cache of expired units. Well, at least that's how
I'd write it, if I was capable of such.

No it is not that smart! I had a whole bunch of expired units that
were busily being processed! I did a reset and they all got dumped and
I got fresh ones.
