Aqua is offline again -- as of about 12:30PM PDT.

The project has been troubled now over various issues since mid June -- a LONG time in the BOINC project world.

Aqua is out of work -- and with the tumult on the administration side, it may not have new work for quite some time.

MW is not doling out GPU work-assimilators are down. Word has it we are unable to access the back end. Indications are RPI is playing with something again.

Moo went back online yesterday.

Aqua remains with no new work and no current administrator.

Aqua remains in a curious 'Predictor-like' status -- the servers are up and running, the message boards are up and running, but there has been no work and no comment from Dwave (who used to run the project) since the project admin left a couple of weeks ago.

There's a distinction to be drawn between DWave the company (who sponsor the project, own the server, and commission/use the research - and are, so far as I know, fully functioning as normal) ...

... and the small unit or department which used to interact with us through BOINC - that's the bit which is going through staff changes.

Looks like Docking dropped off the radar. Complete site is down as well.

The Spinhenge database is offline -- home page is accessible -- but no notes regarding the outage. That project tends not to be 'fixable' over the weekend anyway -- though it has run solid with few bumps for years.

Thanks for that clarification -- I suspected that was the case (Aqua being a small subset of a much larger entity).

Regarding the project -- the website and message boards are all up and running, but on autopilot.

Someone seems to have figured this out and they are using the private messaging feature to spam folks with a variant of the classic Liberia bank scam. With no administration of the site, there is no one minding the store there as it were.

Docking@Home is also back from having been gone. Not a clue what happened there, nothing posted on their site.

For those few following Pirates@Home who are wondering where it went, a hard drive died in the system. Eric is trying to replace the whole system now, but not with a hurry. So it'll return again, in time.

Einstein seems to be down - no website, no (gravity wave) uploads, no reporting completed tasks. I think all of those are handled at the American server-site, not in Germany.

And Einstein is fully back. No explanation so far.
