More drive issues with fritz, so stats are off for right now…
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.

Stats were offline for approximately 8 hours due to a network outage. They’re
back online now. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I’ve finally fixed the stats bug, and stats are caught up again (just in time
for statsrun…)

Sorry for the delay on stats this evening. The audit script has detected a
problem, and the normal trick of rebuilding the ranking tables isn’t fixing it
this time, so I’m going to have to dig into the problem more deeply. But only
after some sleep.

I’ve been working on automatically sending new participants an email with their
password in it (bug 3690). My testing means some of you will have an email from
statspass@distributed.net with your new stats password in it. Unfortunately,
the text of the email is a bit confusing right now. Suffice it to say, if
“10.70.40.11” requested the password to your stats account, you have nothing to
worry about, it was just me. :)

Sorry for the unannounced stats outage. Sadly, the late night fixing just meant
that I forgot to turn the web access back on. They’re back up now.

I’m going to upgrade postgresql on stats to 7.4.6 in a while. I’ll be making
a backup before I do so. I won’t be taking stats offline while I’m making the
backup, so if something goes wrong any changes made after the backup might be
lost.
I expect stats to be down for about 30 minutes while I perform the actual
upgrade.

I recently made the code that deals with blocked participants and teams a bit
more specific by looking at the date a participant or team was blocked. It took
a bit to get the bugs out, which resulted in some odd stats this morning, but
it’s all fixed now. Sorry for any confusion.
