Can someone who has a copy of the Linux version of pfgw please email it to me? (Or, if you don't have it but wouldn't mind, could someone with a yahoo account that's subscribed to the Primeform group download the Linux version of pfgw, then email it to me?) I'm going to need it to put together the Linux version of the Conjectures 'R Us all-in-one software pack that I said I was going to make.

My email address is: http://bugmesticky.googlepages.com/email.gif (it's all crossed out like that to keep the spambots out, it's should still be human readable though, sort of like a CAPTCHA (did I get the acronym right?))
(After I've been mailed the program I'll ask Gary to use his new mod-powers and zap the email address from my post. )

Gary, would it be possible that you add a 'news' section to your webpages?

I agree, that would be a good idea.

I agree, that's probably needed but it's a very general request. I'd like to get a little more input. Do you or others think a separate web page is needed for news? Could it be a separate thread here in the forum instead? It would be quicker for me to update news in a post here than to update the web pages.

More questions: What has been most common way to show news and what do people feel like is the kind of news to show? One thing I can think of is my talk about the team drive on Sierp base 16, which is right now in the sieving thread, and that I'm now sieving. That's probably a good starting point for a news page or thread.

One note here. I'm going to move some posts around into the correct threads and consolidate the 'how to' instructions here tonight. I will let everyone know if about any posts that I move.

I am also going to create a separate thread for primes found and move the post for tcadigan's prime on Sierp Base 16 into it. The 'primes needed' thread is k's where we still need a prime so there's no clear place to report a prime found at the moment. I probably should have called the 'primes needed' thread as 'searches needed'. I'll see if I can change it.


Thanks,
Gary

Thanks Karsten! I'll get the newer version copied into my link tonight.

I agree, probably a thread in the forum would be the best place for news, for now at least--since the project does all of its actual work from this forum, this is already the go-to place for the Conjectures 'R Us project.

Newest LLR version 3.7.1c has now been uploaded into the link at the beginning of this thread.

I second this, though a 'the last 10 changes to this file are'-section on the web-pages would be nice too.

OK, that sounds reasonable. Of course I'll only show substantial changes such as adding sieved files, splitting out bases that are powers of 2, etc. and not insignificant ones where someone just reserves something or we find a prime and eliminate a k...unless it proves a conjecture.

Tasks to do in upcoming days after XMAS:

1. Add a scroll bar that allows the titles to be locked on.

2. Add links for sieved files. I'll do this for all of the k's on base 16. Sieving has now passed P=200G on all remaining k's. Any not reserved after sieving is completed will be combined into a team drive (minus a few k's left open for individual efforts).

3. Add a 'last 10 changes' page and combine it with a 'news' section. After seeing the idea for a changes page, I think it makes sense to have 2 sections on the page; one for news and one for changes. I don't want to get into a lot of duplicate maintenance on both the forums and the pages but I think that would be minimal for news.

4. Just added to my list this morning: Separate the Riesel and Sierp reservation page into one separate page each for Riesel and Sierp and add a new column to each for posting sieved files. Of course for Sierp base 16, I'll add the column to that page. This makes more sense then trying to post sieved files on the main info. pages or squeeze them into the current reservation page, which would clutter both greatly.

it happen on different computer (athlon x2 with win2k and intel centrino duo with winxp) but not on the athlon 2500+ ...

what's wrong ? i guess something with the sse2 instruction ...

the only bypass found at the moment is "remove the k/n pair from the bad computer and throw it to the athlon 2500+"
