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.

CalicoJak has been kind enough to update a little calculator tool from
the rc5-64 days. For a given CPU, it gives estimates on the number
of blocks per day and week you should do for RC5, as well as your expected
OGR rate.

Check http://www.distributed.net/~nerf/rc5calc.html for all the fun.

Keep in mind that these are very rough estimates and will likely
change as cores get updated.

Stop in to #distributed on irc.distributed.net and says thanks to CalicoJak.
