I just made a
post in General Science about the newly started MalariControl.net project. If you are interested in this very worthwhile project, act fast as account creation will close at 500 for the beta, and they are already over 200 at time of writing.

. I do want to relate this to the Einstein@Home part of LIGO. The quote refers to the main LIGO S5 data collection now underway, which is at the design sensitivity of LIGO.
In our pulsar search, Einstein@Home crunchers are still working on S4 data ATM. As
Wolverine posted earlier, there were about 200,000 WUs to crunch from that run. The server status page now indicates we are 35% of the way through this data set. Presumably we will then get to crunch the S5.
I haven't double-checked this, but if memory serves, S5 will be essentially the last data until LIGO is (possibly) upgraded in (possibly) 2010.
And we must hope for gravity wave detection at least by by then, hopefully with S5, since the LISA satellites mission, as all future NASA science, seems to have an uncertain future, if I (possibly) remember correctly.

Also, many thanks to
azazul, the links table on the
BAUTstats site has been updated to include all the current BAUT projects, so it is your one stop for links to stats, account preferences, etc.
