Incase anyone missed BOINCs notice :-

There is going to be another server upgrade on Monday 27.01.2014 starting at 07:30 UTC. RAID array and file system will have to be adjusted so it will take more time. Server will be offline approximately 3 days. I assume being online on Wednesday 29.01.2014 till 11:00 UTC. If there will be more delay I will inform about it on twitter.

So hopefully it'll be back in time for my switch back to A@H :), currently still crunching F@H (since the race) to get me to 7.1 mill, so I can pass a few team mates ;).

Cool, I use freeDC but not been to the combined stats page before AFAIR.

Amazing that Dajeepster is still No1!, & he left how long ago? :(

But Petrus is going to pass him in the near future, oh & Petrus, early congrats for about to hit 800 mill! :cool:

Hey Gleem, you're right up there too, no 9! :)
I'm no 78 ;)

Thanks, mates.
I am aiming for the really big milestone ... lets see when that will come ...
Should pass 900 M in december 2014 ... and the big one in october 2015 ... if life works out OK and the crunchers work as they should ...
Two very BIG ifs ... ;)

I noticed the admin also said that if the outage goes longer than 3 days, that he'll post a notice on Twitter. Since I don't have a Twitter account (nor do I really want one), can I ask one my fellow TA members to post a notice here? Thanks. :)

Unlike with Facebook, you don't need a Twitter account to read tweets. But what's his Twitter username?

That's a handy little site! :)

Yea backed up results here too, though plenty of WUs atm.
I wonder if the admin is posting on twitter? Unfortunately I forgot to check out the forums to find his name :$

Ok I found the below here :-

Sounds like he's talking about security certificates. There's a small chance this relates to the recent Apple SSH vulnerability, but I doubt it.
