Hate to ask a stupid question ( i should be used to it by now =) ), but does "production mode" mean that LHC is out of beta now ? or should i take it from the fact that accounts are still capped at 8000 that they are just running a stress test ?

I'm not involved other than offering computing power, but (IMHO) I would still consider the project in "Beta" status. Perhaps we could get clarification from the "powers that be" on this question ???

Regardless of if the project is still in "beta" or is in "production" our work is still valid and it is still being used to build the LHC. To me, that is the important thing. I know that I am making a positive impact for science.

We have reached more than 8000 users and have turned of the account creation for the time being.

And now account creation is on again for another 2000. That seems to be a very good sign ....

Look at all those old familiar faces turning up in droves. With Seti/BOINC running out of WUs, the sudden largesse here is amazingly timely.

Cheers,
Gary.
