Check out the thread on "funding the server" here: http://www.teamprimerib.com/gimps/viewtopic.php?t=158

Perhaps with the recent downtime on the server we should revisit this topic again?

IMHO, the main reason of most non-x86 users to abandon GIMPS is these clients are not integrated in Primenet.

Talking about Glucas, there has been some atempts to include it in Primenet. The blocking problem was security. For the open source policy of Glucas, it is hard to invent a method to avoid security issues.

But We are open to sugestions. We would like a lot to see Glucas integred in a server.

Yes, it looks like a server replacement is more important than ever. Unfortunately, it comes at a bad time for me (not much free time). As soon as I can I'll start the process of redesigning and rewriting the server code. This won't be quick, so please be patient.
