bumping this old thread to the top b/c work is available again for LHC@Home Classic (SixTrack).
i'm a little late on this notice, so i apologize in advance - i was well aware of the new influx of work to be crunched, but i had completely forgotten that i had started this "awareness/notifications" thread here for everyone until now.
so here's the scoop - only two days ago more LHC@Home Classic (SixTrack) work became available, and the number of tasks ready to send shot up to over 200,000. the infusion ceased, and the number of tasks ready to send steadily went back down to ~75,000 over the next ~36 hours, but then i discovered this morning that the number is climbing again. right now its up to 93,410 tasks ready to send.
for those who don't know, LHC@Home Classic is a project that is highly dependent on the goings on at CERN - sometimes they need massive amounts of compute power, and other times they don't need any. as such, it is a very spotty, intermittent, and irregular project for users and their hosts. so if you want to contibute to the project, now would be the time while there's still work available.
