The server status page show that 7900+ tasks are available, but when I request tasks, I'm told that none are available -- what's going on??

I imagine Eric stopped the work due to validation issues while he fixes things.

The status of all servers being shown as "Running" is very misleading if all work has been stopped. . .

The status of 'running' is independent of number of work units available.

This project tends to push out work in burst as they build up the work then analyze the results.

It's run by one person so if there is issues (as there currently is) the work is lower than normal.

Right; WU submission should restart today.
I am hoping to offer LHC T-shirts to encourage
everyone to come back. So far looks good but I
am just checking results before opening everything up again
and I will post a News. Eric.

You can already buy T-shirts from here or directly from Cern here along with a host of other souvenirs, although some of them can only be purchased in person from the shop. I wanted one of the paperweights but as my tour was on the last day of my trip last summer, I had run out of money. On returning home, I found a 50CHF note that I had hidden (too well), expressly for that purpose. Doh.
