When Seti classic ends I wish Seti would give 1 week notice of not

I still have 1 machine with about a 10 days worth of work units.Tomorrow
I will set seti driver to  hold only 1 in cache that way no more units
will be downloaded for next 10 days.

They'll be shutting down in phases: first registration of new
accounts will cease, then the servers will stop providing WUs, and
finally no more results will be accepted. They haven't yet said how
long each phase will last, but I would guess at least a week,
probably two. See the transition page, to which a link has already
been posted in this thread.

Why do you think they leave everyone guessing?  It could be a week
or several months.  The transition page does not answer the question
the SETI Classic users are asking.  Let me guess; they're too busy
to appoint someone to speak to the unwashed masses.
