Engineers at CERN are installing the last component necessary to fix the Large Hadron Collider, LHC production manager Lyn Evans said at the AAAS conference in Chicago.

In about a month, they will begin the process of cooling the accelerator’s eight sectors, one by one. And by late September, “we’ll be ready to be back where we were last September,” Evans said.

The LHC saw first beams in September 2008, but shortly afterward a flaw in one of its electrical components brought the accelerator to a halt.

could someone summarise, in non-tecchie language, whether it is ok to upgrade to boinc 6.4.x now. I am still using 5.10.x and put off moving to v.6 on hearing of the problems. however my other projects, such as cpdn, have problems with the graphics screensaver if NOT using v.6 so I am getting restless without seeing clear guidance. Guess which projects have continuous work!! /pg

It\'s because of the screensaver graphics so we are working on rolling out a new version of SiXTrack sans graphics ASAP and eventually finding a replacement package.

I swear this project is going to be more professional very soon, Alex and I are trying to implement a system around BOINC regarding job submission, application updates, server upgrades, knowledge base etc etc that was not in place and so needs to be almost reverse engineered into place, this means it is quiet on the outside but moving along in the background similar to the server upgrade (another coming soon) and the deletion of as many duplicate hosts as we could do safely.

We have been reading the boards whenever we get 5 minutes but I have been uber-snowed under with work nonsense so have not been replying (sorry) but I can say that Alex has been out at CERN this week so hopefully more great news to follow if not look out for a murder in the east end of London next week although that wouldn\\\'t be very rare.

Thanks for sticking with us folks especially Dagorath who I have only contemplated killing on one or two occasions ;-)

According to a CERN specialist, LHC has already destroyed earth. On the future.
