I downloaded a WU yesterday, had a deadline of Sept. 6. Just downloaded another one a minute ago and the deadline is the 11th. have they extended the deadlines again or something?

I have a couple similar, but I reckon they're late WUs from the previous run which had eight day deadlines.

I suspose it would be too much to hope for LHC to have extended the 4 day deadline with the USA having a 3 day holiday.

Though i can understand the wish for an extended deadline due to holiday, you knew of the holiday well before now, you could have set LHC to no new work in time to not even have to worry about it. So next time, just think ahead and take the situation in your own hands. or would you rather rely on someone else to ensure your crunch time isn't wasted?
