I have finished several tasks and there are no errors, but it couldn't upload, and the time left shown in 'status' just delayed for many times, besides, I found that the 'TeraFLOPS estimate' in the frontpage is 7.068, and it's far below several days before, I remember three days before, that was over 100, so I guess there maybe some errors with the server and I'm calling for help. Thanks! |

NOBODY can upload/download or communicate in any way with the project servers for more than a day now... |

And I suggest to inform users at least on main page about such issues .. it would definitely reduce number of such posts |

Rosetta folks do NOT even come in on weekends OR manage the website! That means that until they show up for work today they are CLUELESS about our problems! It has ALWAYS been that way with them! |

As mentioned by others as well,(lack of) communication is the biggest problem with the Rosetta project...It might help if you actually read other threads in the forum as well. NOBODY can upload/download or communicate in any way with the project servers for more than a day now... Mr.Baker seems to like basking in the limelight, but doesn't give a **** when it comes how the project is maintained... :( Ralf |

As I mentioned, limelight...Mr.Baker seems to like basking in the limelight, but doesn't give a **** when it comes how the project is maintained... :( And if you think that rosetta has problems with comunication, you don't know project like correlizer, docking, etc....I am participating in 5 different projects (Rosetta@Home & RALPH@Home, SETI@Home, WCG, Einstein@Home and since recently, Climateprediction) and R@H has pretty much no communication at all. All projects can have technical issues, it's a matter how they deal with it and show at least basic communication with the folks doing the crunching for them. And that barely cost anything, mere minutes to at least someone from the project admins/techs/profs/etc to acknowledge that they are aware of the problem. Not to mention such gaffes as releasing bad applications untested in the wild and than taking a couple of days to try and remedy situation.. Dr.Baker might be a good scientist, but given that his name is associated directly with all of this, he is a miserable communicator and project manager... Ralf |

Not to mention such gaffes as releasing bad applications untested in the wild and than taking a couple of days to try and remedy situation.. I'm agree with this point... I crunch for ralph and i'm frustrated about comunication with volunteers. Dr.Baker might be a good scientist, but given that his name is associated directly with all of this, he is a miserable communicator and project manager... I think "miserable" it's too strong. He IS A GOOD SCIENTIST. The problem it's that in the rosetta team there isn't a official spokesperson... ModSense is a good boy, but he isn't a part of team |

I remember back in the VERY old days when someone stole the copper cable out of the ground at Seti, it was A WEEK before anyone at Seti said ANYTHING AT ALL!! They just didn't think about telling anyone! They had plenty of opportunities to tell people, they just didn't! They lost THOUSANDS of crunchers because of it!! Sooo it COULD be worse, but Rosetta IS at the bottom of the pile right now! |

But since I rejoined SETI (a year after getting back into DC with R@H), their communication hasn't been 'perfect' (try WCG when you want to something close to that), but here at R@H, it's simply ridiculous... There might be issues that they can't immediately resolve due to resource constraints, but at the very least it should be possible to acknowledge any problem and give a heads up on a possible ETA for a fix. That takes just mere minutes, possible from everywhere in this time and age of smartphones. It's this eerie silence here from anyone directly associated with the project that really p***** m* t** h** o**... :-( Ralf |
