Following the launch of the Nutritious Rice for the World project, the max size of the result file was specified too small. Due to the way that BOINC operates, a workunit would run for the full 8 hours before reporting this issue.

As this was a clear mistake on my part and becuase there was substantial loss of credit and cpu time for the members, we have awarded members who were impacted by this issue credit for the cpu time, results, and points they would have been awarded. The points was based on what was claimed by the computer.

Members will not see these on the Results Status page - but they will appear in your overall statistics on the website after the next statistics run at 0:06 UTC May 15th.

In all, the following was awarded to the 2,633 computers that were involved:

2.98 years of cpu time
3,264 results
2,545,161 points (or 363,594 BOINC credits)
