The family is leaving for Cuba this evening, visiting some of my wife's relatives. So I won't have time to do the POTM polls, does anyone else want to step up? If not, we could just take 'er easy and decide on CPU and GPU Vacations in July.

If Trump let's us back in, hasta luego!

Well I guess that answers it - PotM for CPU and GPU is "Vacation" for July...
Let us know what you're shrubbing!

Some news to consider:

SkyNet / POGS will be running new data. I don't understand the differences between duchamp, SoFiA and pogs - 3 separate projects?

TN Grid also running new data.

Amicable Numbers news:

I've decided to speed up the launch of the next search due to performance issues with GPU version that everyone experiences now.
What will happen on July 1st:
1) "Amicable Numbers up to 10^20" application will start receiving tasks.
2) All GPU versions for the old application "Amicable Numbers up to 2^64" will be deprecated.
3) Credit points for both applications will be re-balanced to make sure that RAC doesn't change.

So all GPUs should automatically switch to the new application, and the old application will remain as CPU-only until it finishes.
