new Seti BOINC member

[AMDave]

Thanks to whoever for the SetiBOINC signup.
(prob bwhite as discussed yesterday)

Although the XML based stats are still only showing 11 active members, the total number has gone from 39 to 40 and we took on some points
Net result is we went from TC rank 1993 to TC rank 1711.
Thats a stats change we can stand.
Welcome aboard the SetiBOINC train.

Yup, it was me. Not currently running seti but did sign up.

From SETI BOINC:

News
October 4, 2004
There will be an outage tomorrow morning (17:00 UTC) for several hours for database reconfiguration. Specifically, the transitioners and validators are falling way behind, making the crediting process quite slow. Last week we successfully created a replica database on a system with a much faster disk array than the master database system. Tomorrow, we hope to swap the two, as the database is seemingly I/O bound and faster disks will mean faster database queries which in turn will mean the validator/transitioner queues should quickly drain.

Sounds like we should keep our fingers crossed?!?!?? :? If it goes well will make this more interesting to run. I have completed several seti BOINC w/u but have yet to see any credit.
