staff blogs

distributed.net staff keep (relatively) up-to-date logs of their activities in .plan files. These were traditionally available via finger, but we've put them on the web for easier consumption.

well, as much as we hate to have to do this, it looks like we’ll have
to postpone the test contest again, but this time until (at least)
Tuesday 9:00 Pacific. The main motivations behind this is that we
still don’t believe that sufficient numbers of people were able to yet
download and install the recently released clients due to their late
release. There have also been a number of last minute technical
details that we have had to worry about. We will also hope to start
releasing the build 300 personal proxies sometime today (Sunday).
We’re hoping that delaying will also give more people the opportunity
to participate since the delay would also move the test contest into
the middle of the work week. Keep your eyes open for later details.
