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.

The 4/9 RC5 statsrun died due to an mixed up logfile. I’ll be starting
the 4/9 run shortly, so 4/10 should be done some time before midnight UTC.
OGR should also run in there somewhere.
