*22 June 2004

    We made SETI@home/BOINC available for general use. 

*16 March 2005

    We updated the BOINC database with current information from
    Classic. Classic accounts created since 14 May 2004 were linked to
    the BOINC account having the same email address, if it existed;
    otherwise a new BOINC account was created with that email address
    (see technical details below). 

*To be announced

    Account creation is disabled on Classic. 

*To be announced

    We stop creating workunits for Classic. 

*To be announced (1 April 2005 or later)

    We turn off the data server for Classic. Classic will no longer
    send workunits or accept results. Functions to update account
    information are disabled. We update the BOINC account database with
    current information from SETI@home Classic one final time. At this
    point the Classic statistics are frozen (though we may continue to
    eliminate 'cheaters'). 

Current transition plan.
