I have had trouble downloading workunits since early Tuesday morning. During all that time the
"server status page" has indicated all is more or less well. I now know from the "technical news"
that there has been a problem with the mysql or some such thing. (I think that is where they keep
the hamsters.) Now I am loaded up with eight completed tasks trying to upload. This seems to be
preventing the system from getting any new workunits. I bumped the preferences up to 3 days and
turned on Astropulse, but that doesn't seem to help. Once again, the "server status page" seems to
indicate all is well. I can't really tell if something is wrong in Berkeley, or if something is
wrong with my system or network. Any help would be appreciated. Here are some of the messages.
