The project is *still* down. The database cleanup for the bug found on July
28 is going much slower than expected. We hope to have everything back up
later today or early tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Well, at least now they are apologizing :)
I still do not understand why such a big project (in fact: the biggest
dc project) has such lousy public information channels. A little more
help/understanding/explaining/anything from the folks @berkeley running
S@H/BOINC would be very much appreciated!
I know this is a project for volunteers, but if you just look at the
scope of it the side that the public get's to see looks, shall we say
"non professional". If they want to keep their sponsors they should
think about making their users happy, look at the website and
information of The Planetary Society (planetary.org) that kind of PR
looks more like it!
Anyway; this time I still have 2 days of WU's left, looks like I am
going to make it :)
