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.

A few minor things. I’ve been mostly swamped with hfdirect work the past
few weeks so stats development has been slower than I’d like.

o I’ve had a handful of reports of underreporting on stats. It’s not
widespread, but enough that it’s also obviously not user error. So far,
in every case the numbers in stats have matched the numbers in the
keymaster logfile. If there is a problem, it’s upstream from stats.

As always, if you suspect there is a problem with your clients / work
being lost, the first thing to do is enable logging everywhere you can.
Detailed logs will allow us to trace your blocks through the keyserver
network and identify exactly what is happening.

o http://rc5stats.distributed.net/cgi/emsummary.idc?em=nugget@slacker.com
works once again. This is a legacy url from the old stats box. This
means that the “view my stats” option in the win32 gui client should once
again take you to the appropriate page.
