I don't think we had anybody in this condition, but better safe than sorry. This from Elena, in case you missed it:


50,000 structures = INCORRECT version

For those of you who were impatient and had started using the patch version which had 50,000 structures in generation zero, this is the INCORRECT version, which will have a negative effect on the results of this protein if it continues to be used.

The patches were changed to the correct version before the official update was released, so all you keeners will now have to grab to correct executable, before the results for this run become tainted... The correct version will have 30,000 structures for gen. 0.

Thanks for your cooperation!

I have never heard of it, but I took it to be someone that was keen or eager about something. But when I looked it up and found "A professional mourner who wails at a funeral. [Ireland]", I thought that was way cooler. But probably not the meaning that was meant.

Yup, the OED agrees with Welnic, but I suspect his surmise is accurate. Maybe a bit of a back-hand compliment. She sounds just ever so slightly irked. :cool:

Heh...I actually use that term. It is known as someone who tends to be eager, and at times, uh, jumps the gun a bit perhaps. :) Definitely not a bad thing, per se, but can cause problems if you look before you leap. :)
