(11.00 UTC) The server crashed again, this time for good. The motherboard did a suicidal action and took the CPU with it down.
Until it is possible to install a replacement motherboard and CPU the server will be running in degraded-mode meaning that no sessions will be rendered and no access will be available to the result and workunit database (see the more technical details for a reason why). Forums and the remaining website should be unaffected and no data was lost during this incident.
Updates on service availability will be posted here when the status changes. Currently mail and CVS is offline along with the longterm storage array. A fundraising for the new server components has been created. The exact cost is still to be determined. Keep tuned for updates.

May have to wait a while for validation as they're a bit random in the ones they send out. Can take a while for the quorum to be met.

Got 61 credits pending so far, but the credit is rolling in, and been validated

Anyone else fancy a bash whilst there are over 1 million WU's to crunch

Good to see one of the projects have a 'Happy Hat' today!

2009-04-01: BURP
We are happy to announce that BURP along with all user accounts
has been sold to General Motors. The GM spokesman explains
the purchase as follows:
"Our cars have sophisticated computer systems protecting you during accidents, we want
those systems to also do something useful when you are not performing an emergency braking procedure.
Drive safely and make the world a better place by letting your car render 3D graphics."
As a consequence we will no longer be supporting the Windows and Linux operating systems and will instead
focus all development on the custom processors in the Cadilac and Chevrolet series.
Please note that the current version of the GM-compatible client may need as much as 30 secs to pause
and resume computations. This is not an issue as long as you avoid situations that require use of the brakes
or the stearing wheel during those 30 seconds. The radio will remain unaffected.
