The odds are that WCG will restart part way through a day. Will that day count? Probably only the fastest machines would be able to start from zero and complete within that first day. It might be just possible for me if I prioritise the quickest units for the first day or so. Also, we will all be running out of work on different days. When will the streaks be suspended? Mike Streaks have now been suspended. Any streak that was active as of Feb 13th has been extended to today (Feb 16th) where it will sit until the restart. Note - the website may show that you do not have a streak active after today - that is just an artifact of the them not being updated. The extension on the other side will resolve that. |

The testing is expected to be done in-house first, to establish if there are any performance bottlenecks in the new environment that could impede achieving established performance levels. After that there should be testing with limited outside involvement, followed by more testing and other steps toward the restart of the projects. 1. Is that an official response or just someone's "rule of thumb"( I am assuming it isn't official)? 2. Who's expectation? |

Yes, let us know how we can help out.
----------------------------------------I am looking forward to working with Krembil. It will be nice to help get this new partnership between crunchers and researchers off to a good start. Personally I can't wait to see the new and exciting projects that Krembil can bring to WCG. Please keep us updated and lrt us know what we can do to help with the stress testing. Respect SV  |

Looks like savas is a member of the project team (no badges, posts only in answer to administrative or technical questions, joined Sep 21 2021). So, probably what is planned at the moment for going through this process? [Edit 1 times, last edit by geophi at Feb 19, 2022 9:32:50 PM] |

Thank you SyystemViper and others
indeed - while we will be busy with the final phase - we will definitely ensure we keep the volunteers informed about the progress; and we do have a plan for some additional material. And - we are absolutely thrilled to embrace the citizens science fully - and to work together on exciting scientific projects that benefit humanity. thank you igor |

As mentioned in this message:
----------------------------------------If Krembil needs some volunteers for beta testing the operation of the new platform prior completely releasing it for productive use, I would like to be one of them. You can contact me via e-mail. Cheers, Yves |
