We are doing great on DepSpid 3rd place by RAC.

We need more members to attach there windows boxes to this project, it runs at the same time as other projects giving them priority, and it grabs computer cycles when it can.

Lets get to number one by RAC!

We are still in 3rd place by RAC but we are very close to second. Just a few more members attaching to Depspid on their windows boxes and we'll be there.

*Wonders if he should install BOINC on family members boxes when he goes to do their next maintenance*

Sure Werechild, the more the merrier. Just log in to the admin account or your own if you have one and do a service install, it runs even when no one is logged on but the screensaver won't work.

We have now made 2nd place by RAC, just a few more boxes to go and we'll have 1st.

GREAT GOOGLILY MOOGILY!!!
THIS TEAM IS REALLY GOING PLACES!!!

Wasnt that the idear?

Absolutely! I'm just surprised with how fast we are making headway!

Keep it up folks!!

Does
"Rome wasnt build in a day" and " If you build it, they will come"
ring any bells?

Its the snowball effect... and who better than Canadians to know about snow?

News from DepSpid, gone for 4 to 6 weeks.

BAD NEWS

Old News

LMAO!! I could have sworn that said November!

The good news is that the "4 weeks" part is done, so all thats left is the "or more".

Sun, 11 Nov 2007 --- Project restart delayed
The restart of the project is currently delayed. There are two reasons for this delay: The main reason is a hardware failure which occurred more than one month ago. It took some weeks to find the cause for the hardware failure: a damaged graphics adapter. The faulty graphics adapter was replaced yesterday but the maintenance of the backend database which was the original reason for the long outage was interrupted due to the hardware failure and still needs to be done. The second reason is that a new spider application is currently being build and tested. This new spider version needs to be ready before the project will be restarted. The current estimation is that there will be another two or three weeks before the project will restart

Thanks for the update!

Sat, 08 Dec 2007 --- The end of the outage is coming soon (more or less)
The current outage was planned to end sometime in October. But due to a hardware failure, the outage had to be extended much further. During the last months, the backend database was restructured and a new application version was being build and tested. This restructuring still hasn't finished. But during the next two weeks, there will be some small batches of tasks to test and enhance the new spider application. Normal operation is expected to start again in early January 2008. Please note that the validator/assimilator currently isn't running and credits for the new tasks won't be granted before January.

Mon, 10 Dec 2007 --- First new batch successful
The first batch with 150 new tasks was sent out yesterday. The returned results are very promising and everything seems to be working very well. The overall error rate is much lower (less than 3%) than with any previous application version before. A second batch with 500 new tasks will be sent out today together with a further improved spider application

Yes got some this time

Think this'll be fully operational by February? If so, maybe we should have this as one of the list to vote on for February's PoTM.
