Einstein@home seems to be running smoothly again, in fact more smoothly than before, as a result of the new
database server configuration.

One would hope so - the most recent outage lasted more than a week.

2011-03-01: Einstein@Home - Einstein@Home Discovers New Binary Radio Pulsar
A new preprint reports the second Einstein@Home discovery, of a radio pulsar orbiting a white dwarf star once every 9.4 hours. The pulsar, called J1952+2630, is spinning on its axis 48 times per second. It was discovered in data collected at Arecibo Observatory in 2005 by the PALFA Collaboration. The white-dwarf companion star is unusually massive, and weighs at least 95% as much as our sun. This means that J1952+2630 probably belongs to a rare class of intermediate-mass binary pulsars (five were previously known).

Congratulations to the two Einstein@Home participants whose computers found J1952+2630 with the highest significance: Dr. Vitaliy V. Shiryaev (Moscow, Russia) and Stacey Eastham (Darwen, UK)! And a big "thank you" to all Einstein@Home volunteers, whose continuing support makes these exciting discoveries possible.

Director, Einstein@Home

Dear Australia Einstein@Home volunteer,

A proposal has just been put forward to build one of the
Advanced LIGO detectors in Western Australia. Locating one of these
detectors in Australia would have a tremendous scientific impact:
it would enable more detections and improve our ability to identify
exactly where gravitational-wave signals are coming from. For
more information, please see this Science Message Board note:
http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/forum_thread.php?id=8851&sort=6
from Stan Whitcomb, the Director of LIGO-Australia. If you are
interested in the details, the note includes a pointer to the
full written proposal, which can be downloaded from the Internet.

Thank you for your contributions to Einstein@Home!

Sincerely,
     Bruce Allen
     Director, Einstein@Home

Did you know, Doug is my uncle in law?  :thumbsup:
He's the reason I found out about BOINC and joined the team :)

Yeah I've been bombarded with emails lately about privacy changes to all different accounts.
Haven't read any of them yet though :)

I don't fully understand what the message is telling me on Einstein though?

Einstein is in compliance with GDPR. BOINCStats requested and received a token from them so their stat's are being imported to BS. Don't know if Dyeman's import will be affected though.
