Whats up with boink? I've got one system that's out of work, 2 others that

internet is fine.  I can get statistics updates ok.

Yes, Berkeley have a problem with their upload/download server being overloaded for some reason.

I really truly wish
they would go back to Seti Classic which actually worked.

And it is still working until the new foibles with Boinc have been cleared.

Boinc is still new and is still getting new functionality added. Seti classic is now very old and staid and long-in-the-tooth and can't do any other analysis other than only what it is already doing.

Times and ideas move on, as does new science and new data.


Hang in there,

this is all part of the development and experiment.

Happy crunchin',
Martin
