Unless something big puts the breaks on, it will be over sooner than later. We're now @ sub 100 days work at recent speed. Crunch On. --//-- Wrote this on June 27... then I Read the News Today, Oh Boy ... my lips are sealed **, and enough distractions to dispense of an earlier warning ... ;O) --//-- P.S.: ** Oh boy, another of these double English meaning words and spelled same for both... "seal"... a heteronym.  P.P.S. Giving no cryptography clues. |

If we have 60 more days to work on HCC, I am looking at 5 years at a minimum. The question is whetheror not I will be able to get to six years.

... P.S.: ** Oh boy, another of these double English meaning words and spelled same for both... "seal"... a P.P.S. Giving no cryptography clues. Actually, it is a homonym -- heteronyms are pronounced differently (lead = LED and LEED).

I am getting Gold and trying for Ruby, but I don't know if there is enough left in the barrel with everyone trying to get in some last boosts.

If a new project starts in less than two months, it may extend the end date of HCC.

If a new project starts in less than two months, it may extend the end date of HCC. ...but if HCMD2 remains down, things may even go faster...  Regards, Martin  |

But, there again, if HFCC restarts (as is likely before HCC finishes), then that'll also have a knock-on effect... And people were asking/berating SekeRob for not providing precise dates of when a project will finish... IT'S IMPOSSIBLE, THINGS HAPPEN!!!!  |

Let me refrain from *advising* the berators... many will see why WCG wont give any prediction... they could give a 60 day warning too, disturb the ecosystem that requires techs to constantly adjust matrices and then realize again that scientists are scientists, always needing more data ;>)
At any rate, ATM I know 3/4th of the projected day numbers on the dashboard have been overtaken by new info and events, few cryptanalytics reading what I'm saying between the lines [No comments on my part of course, as I'm not ad lib to tell]. Outlook numbers will be reworked after HFCC returns and HCMD2 comes back and XXXX has launched and and and but for every day you don't see a 30 day notice you'll know it's at least 31 ;O --//-- |
