Comments on the following newsitem

Unless someone has good reasons not to do it, all hosts who have not communicated with a project for more than two months will no longer be included in the statistics.
Host stats are growing explosively. One of the reasons is the ease with which a system changes its CPID which generates lots of duplicates. There are also a lot of systems no longer functioning. In my opinion it’s not necessary to know what a Pentium III host with Windows XP did back in 2004.
Writing a comment is your chance to convince me otherwise.

Sounds like a great idea. Will all of the inactive hosts be deleted from our host lists? Sounds like a good way to clean up our individual lists as well as the database.

I've been thinking about something along these lines recently too.

Personally I think it should be done in the boinc server software to not even put these hosts in the xml in the first place.

That would be best, however it will take a long time before all projects have updated to the latest code.

Will all the inactive hosts be deleted from our host lists? Sounds like an amazing way to easy up our individual lists as well as the database. For this, Use the home embroidery machine that will help you to do stitching fast.

Is it correct to say that 'Inactive' does NOT include 'retired' (for example SETI)? Will this impact on 'properly retired' numbers. Or am I mixing up apples and oranges?

Willy, I hope your reading this. I had to sign into BOINCstats with a different email and different password because the password I use in BOINC (all projects) was no longer accepted.

I do know that you are or have changed the website to reduce the number of hosts by eliminating those that have not been in BOINCstats for two months. And I believe that may be why I can't or couldn't get in.

But there is no "Forgot Password" or other link to get an email showing the host user their password. And when I tried to login, I just receive a message on the same screen that reads "site already activated".

So I'm stumped as to get in with my current, existing email and password.

Please help!

We do not remove accounts, only inactive hosts, so your account should still be here. My glass bowl is broken, so can you share your original user name and or email address with me?
