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 number of new release candidates have been added to the pre-release
page at http://www1.distributed.net/download/prerelease.php for people
who want to help test new versions prior to formal release.

A new Mac OS X client has been moved from the pre-release page to the
official release page, that incorporates even more PPC speed
improvements for OGR. http://www1.distributed.net/download/updates.php

Kakace has been working very hard to bring forward these exciting PPC
speed optimizations. There will be hopefully be more OGR gains for
other architectures in the next few weeks, once some major OGR core
cleanup and improvements are finished.

I’ve also made available version 1.3.0 of my Win32 LogVis add-on. It
is available on http://www.distributed.net/download/addon.php and
source for it is on http://www.distributed.net/source/ Since everyone
likes looking at screen snapshots, here are a couple for you all:
