Is there a way to suggest a different term for the condition currently referred to as "success?"

Intuitively, it implies, well, success.

While the definition seems to be more along the lines of "calculation completed and returned but not yet validated"

Could we consider using the term "reported" or "returned" rather than "success?"

Thanks
Phil

I have never seen Success displayed on the core client on the Manager, only on project websites.

Thanks!

I bet that means that I should post this in a different forum.

Could you suggest which one?

Thanks
