Well, not really. Now it works from 1, but when you select it from the menu on the left (result query/factoring limits), the box is filled in with... 0! So, I filled 10000 on the second box. Zero results returned.

I had to fill in a 1 in the first box (replacing the zero) to get the list.

Now please, don't fix it for zero in such a way that the default value will be "-1" hehe

Haha, love to bother you!
In fact, just replacing the default text in that box with "2" would solve all the problems. Or, add an "if smaller than 2, replace it with 2". And for the second box, "if smaller than the first box, then replace it with first box". And that is all. For lazy guys like me who won't type over the default values, hehe.

edit: The listing works very nice, and I like the automatic exclusion of the assigned exponents (again, for lazy guys who wont click once more to select the checkbox, haha, wonderful!) (first my heart jumped, I thought that someone factorized 1277 and 1619, grrr

)

edit2: now it works fine, thanks a lot, very nice and prompt job! Real-time support, hehe...

TF work gathered en-masse through the new interface is still off-the-record, I imagine? I see little value in adding reservations, particularly if we're good about unofficially reserving the stuff through the forum.

Your message does not allude to any prior post which might leave viewers confused.
Perhaps you are bothered or confused about my prior post mentioning that provisions for un-assigned work have now been enhanced, yet there is not a symmetric provision for gaining assigned work.
Don't get me wrong, I can see the place for soaking up masses of unreserved work, and I also engage in such thrusts.
I believe that the face of PrimeNet should be coherent in manner filtering candidates for a proposed purpose.
Recent advances here alter that balance more noticeably, introducing candidate filtering not offered universally.
I also see the merits of work being reserved, especially when within sight of the PrimeNet automatic allocation front.
I reckon that provisions for honorable assignment of work should be not inferior to the provisions for grabbing un-assigned work. however that seems to be the current situation.
Is it not preferable to encourage assignment of work for most people?
Edit, I acknowledge that filtering by TF level is not new for the report_factoring_effort information, but the greater accessibility is nevertheless significant.

I wasn't alluding to any particular post, no.

I was just making the observation that gathering lots of the 100M+ TF work has gotten a LOT easier now that the factoring limits page literally hands you the worktodo.txt exactly as you need it. I just wanted to make sure I hadn't missed anything and that we hadn't in any way added a reservations system, and that all the LMH stuff is still strictly free-for-all.

To be honest, I still don't understand what troubles you with my comment. I know very well the value of the reservations system for any LL, DC, and factoring work remotely near the wave fronts.

I was specifically saying that despite the huge facilitation to gathering LHM factoring work I see little value in adding a system to reserve that work. I feel like there isn't enough of an organized effort to warrant a reservations system for tens of thousands of factoring jobs. Anyone going into the 700M range, for example, understands that it's completely unregulated.

My first guess is that might be some admission of difficulty.
I do not concede any difficulty editing mersenne.org/report_factoring_effort material for worktodo purposes.
Perhaps it is the the tool for the purpose that matters.
I tend to use TextPad.

bit of a fag = time consuming and tedious
