What is an inconclusive result?

Hi... I just noticed that one of my results is tagged as "inconclusive" (first one that I have ever seen). What does this mean? Could it be eventually accepted (maybe after some sort of review or process) or will it be a candidate for the bit bucket?
Thanks,
Chris

Re: What is an inconclusive result?

Hi,

Merely means that a ''second opinion'' result is being computed to test if yours can be declared valid. The system checks all computers when not 100% sure about a result.

The ''second opinion'' is usually returned in 48 hours, often quicker.

Update: Today the "inconclusive" result is now "valid", which is goodness
