Sounds good. I've sent a PM to John at the PST forum asking for a p=10T RSP2M range; as we near completion on that I'll reserve a 3M range (actually "PPR3M" as they call it, since it's combined with the Proth side).

I don't see the point in doing rsp2M all to 500T is out on Boinc now. Doing ~60T/day

OK. Max, if you can change that to a PPR3M reservation, I think that makes more sense at this point.

The main thing is that I'd like to keep NPLB involved in the sieving process, even though we're not BOINC, since we are one of the larger beneficiaries of the ranges.

58T-60T complete and uploading now.

Thanks for the quick work Frmky!

Sounds good. I've now reserved 20T-30T on the PPR3M sieve for NPLB. Since the PPR3M sieve is combined Riesel+Proth, we will be sieving with tpsieve, not ppsieve. I'll update the instructions in this thread before making the new range available.

Edit: Heck, I'll just make a new thread. That will be easier than trying to sort out what needs to be change and what doesn't in this thread.

Very good. We can plan on unsticking this thread.

Thanks for all who contributed to the sieving!
