From the Boinc/Seti front page:

The old SETI@home Classic project will stop issuing work on December 15,

Anyone have any idea how long they'll keep accepting results after they
stop sending out WUs?
I'd assume no more than two weeks as that is about how long before all
of the WUs would have expired.
That's an assumption based on the deadline for boinc-seti WUs.
Seti-Classic has no timeout on the WUs sent.
As discussed on the Boinc forums, the only reason to continue with
seti-Classic from now on is only if you are desperate to reach some
milestone. Any further seti-Classic results very likely do not get added
to the science database any more (the merge of the classic and
boinc-seti databases is in progress now).
There has been one comment that the seti-Classic stats will be
_frozen_
on 15 Dec 2005...
Happy crunchin',
