[DENIS@Home] Reduction in the number of tasks during the month of August // Reducción en el número de tareas durante el mes de agosto

Dear volunteers,
We are approaching the month of August in which the university rests for vacations. While we may not stop completely, the number of tasks available this month will be fewer. Our attention to the state of the server will be reduced, so we do not want to take the risk of saturating it.

Between the 20th to 28th the stop of new tasks will be total, resuming normal activity from the 29th or 30th.

I take this opportunity to tell you that the different variations of the optimization are continuing, in some cases it seems that we could obtain better results, but we are going to be cautious, when they are finished we will inform you of the final result.

Good summer everyone.

All the best,
Jesus.

Estimados voluntarios,
Nos acercamos al mes de agosto en el que en la universidad descansamos por vacaciones. Si bien es posible que no nos detengamos del todo, el número de tareas disponibles en este mes será menor. Nuestra atención al estado del servidor se verá reducida por lo que no queremos asumir el riesgo de saturarlo.

Entre los días 20 a al 28 la parada de nuevas tareas será total, retomandose a partir del día 29 o 30 la actividad normal.

Aprovecho para indicaros que las diferentes variaciones de la optimización siguen su curso, en algunos de los casos parece que podemos obtener mejores resultados, pero vamos a ser cautos, cuando hayan concluido os informaremos del resultado final.

Buen verano a todos.

Un saludo,
Jesús.
