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.

Wednesday 24 May between 18:30 and 23:30 UTC mail sent to
help@distributed.net was bounced back to the sender by mx.hartbrothers.com
reporting it could not be delivered to an @hartbrothers.com address used
internally by our help@ software, Mustang Message Center. If you received
a reply with a long tracking number in the subject, your mail was delivered
and will be read by help@ staff. If you received a nastygram from
mx.hartbrothers.com, please resend your mail.

My apologies for the inconvenience.

Banners submitted in the last 6 months have finally been processed
and moved into circulation. For instructions on adding a d.net
banner ad to your web site, check out

http://www.distributed.net/banners/recruit.html

To see all the banner ads currently in rotation on one glorious page,
and probably inflate your browser memory footprint to 20MB or so, see:

http://www.distributed.net/banners/all.cgi

As always, your 400×40 .gif or .jpg banner ad submissions are welcome
via anonymous ftp to upload.distributed.net’s incoming directory.
Please upload a .txt file with your name and email address, so we
can give credit on /banners/.

Please accept my apologies for the delay in processing submitted banner
ads, the volunteer who previously handled this has been away from
distributed.net and no one thought of it until it was mentioned
in #distributed channel on EFnet IRC.
