There is going to be a big maintenance starting 2025-08-17 and it will take about 1 - 2 weeks. We'll be doing upgrade of Debian and BOINC server. We are going to make complete backup before that which will take some time.

Are you going to implement a separate science database along with the working database so we don't have 8 months of old data still in our accounts to load every web page visit?

No, this project has been continously active since late 2022 when it came back online.

Good luck. As a person who began working in IT in 1970, I know that Murphy's Law is real, so we must all plan accordingly. Patience is definitely a virtue when it comes to rebuilding and/or upgrading complex systems. Put on your noise-cancelling headphones - you don't need to hear anything but your own thoughts and music. Again, good luck.

Best of luck not to wake the demon Murphy.

I hope you use that opportunity to get rid of the external scripts - and especially those freaking Google ones - on this site.
Thanks in advance!
Greetings, Jens
