The New scientist report says that one of the people who analysed the
signal was Oliver Voelker from Nuremberg, Germany. About 3 years ago
there was a character called Oliver from Germany who boasted on this
newsgroup that he had patched the SETI@home software. Anybody remember
his surname (if he ever posted it)?

He posted it in other groups. Since he didn't post it here, I'll not
reveal it here. In any case, it would be only his claim.

But the name was definitely *not* "Voelker", not even near. And
"Oliver" is not really seldom as a name.
