They've posted a couple of updates on the <a href="http://www.stanford.edu/group/pandegroup/folding/news.html">Folding@Home news page</a> in the last day or so. Both will be of interest to anyone actively crunching for this project:<br><br><table width="90%" border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="1" bordercolor="#63635A" bgcolor="#E7E7E2" align="center"><tr><td style="font-size: 12px; font-style: italic;"><b>7/25/2003 Please upgrade old clients -- support for 2.xx clients will soon be ending</b><br>Please upgrade 2.xx clients. We will soon stop supporting the 2.xx series of clients. In the end, 3.xx also has lots of features and fixes and has remained stable for a while, so there is no reason not to upgrade!<br><br><b>7/24/2003 Planned shutdown, Wed July 30, 8AM PDT</b><br>The power to our server room will be temporarily shutdown this coming Wednesday. We plan to keep FAH up as much as possible (assuming the generator is working), but we will likely take this time to do some server maintenance. It is scheduled to last 3-4 hours.</td></tr></table><br><br>While we're on the subject of Folding@Home, I've nearly completed the Folding@Home addition to the <a href="http://stats.zerothelement.com">Arachnid Stats Engine</a>. It's been a long time in coming, but things have been busy and progress was slower than I expected. <img src=http://www.free-dc.org/images/news/icon36.gif><br><br>At any rate, I've got it pulling data now and I'll be checking the results over the next couple of days. If everything looks good, it'll probably go live Monday or Tuesday.
