Wishing you well as you make tough decisions

My work units are validating.

Funnily enough I asked 3 people behind the scenes now what they expect of a new BOINC server, so we can possibly start a crowd-funding or donation drive for one. Utter silence on that as well. So either no one knows, or they just don't need a new server.


Ageless too bad--could run a fundraiser via Bitcoin Utopia. I've run a couple good cash-raisers over there

Just a thought. If Matt could put together specs for a new Boinc Server, maybe we could get a donation drive going. Hardware, not Cash.

Once I have the wishlist, I am willing to monitor the drive.

Since I am done with the T-shirts, I need a new labor of love.


Uli could you put some focus to getting a project budget published please? I know others have been asking as well.

Summary
We will be updating our security certificates on Monday, July 20th, 2015. Volunteers using older versions of the software may need to upgrade.


World Community Grid will be upgrading our SSL (security) certificates on Monday, July 20th, 2015. The majority of our volunteers will not be impacted by this change.

SSL certificates are used to encrypt communications between your web browser and our servers, and between the software client and our servers. SSL certificates must be renewed periodically and we are therefore updating our current certificates.

Certain older versions of BOINC or World Community Grid software will not be compatible with our new certificates. After we upgrade the certificates, volunteers using older versions of the software may not be able upload, download, request or report research work. To ensure that you will not be impacted, please upgrade to the latest version of the software (7.2.x at least).

I don't know what caused it but I've kept trying and the error eventually went away and it accepted the report for that workunit. I didn't reboot or reset the project or anything like that. I still wonder if anyone else was having the same problem.


David-the issue was clear in your error:

project servers may be temporarily down


They may have gone down briefly.

Jord, you have been very accommodating and like I very free speech oriented. An occasional outburst isn't something to get bothered about. But like a loud neighbor's party late into the night when you have to go to work in the morning, there comes a time when an official be quiet is needed.

Mark AFIK you can still post at Beta. If you wish you could try for a trifecta.

A thank you to Jord for keeping the place cleaned up. I know it takes time away from the other things he would much rather do. A big thanks.


Well said.

He'd be welcome at Milkyway. I recently made it clear in another unrelated situation that negative comments about Seti or their mods won't be accepted. As long as he can respect the rules, he's absolutely welcome
