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.

I think I may have actually figured out a way to do real-time stats,
something that some participants have been foaming at the mouth about for
a very, very long time. The technique will involve utilizing our network
itself for stats computation. The problem is that right now it looks like
it will require about 80% of our network to make it work. We’ll have to see
if that can be improved upon.

BTW, happy April 1st to everyone.
