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.

This week there have been some routing issues with our two keyservers
in Redwood City, CA (proxy1.rwc.ca.us.proxy.distributed.net and
proxy2.rwc.ca.us.proxy.distributed.net). There is a large backlog of
blocks sitting on both of these machines, which accounts for why some
participant stats may have been low this week. The routing issue
appears to be fixed now, but it may take a day or so for everything to
get caught up again.

I’ve also just relocated my distributed.net photo gallery, from under
my personal web space, to a more officially named virtual host. You
can now find these pictures (of primarily distributed.net staff and
other miscellaneous images) under http://gallery.distributed.net/
