About 7 to 8 days ago I changed the device profile on the WCG website to allow for the maximum number of tasks for ARP workunits from 3 to 4 and the change was persistent when I saved the profile. On previous attempts to do change values on the device profile I was not able to save any changes that I made. Except for the day when the BOINC application was not able to communicate with WCG my desktop computer was consistently getting the maximum of 3 workunits to process at a time. This morning there seems to have been a change where WCG recognized the device profile update that I had made and the desktop computer was processing 4 workunits simultaneously. I find this to be encouraging.

3 newly created OPN1 task, and one newly created ARP1 task, arrived here about 1 hour ago.
The ARP1 task did have some download problems though, with plenty of "transient HTTP errors". But as usual, some abuse of the "retry/retry all" option, solved that problem pretty quick.

We are trying to send out more tasks soon, but as we've stated in previous announcements, the quantity of tasks is limited and not every volunteer is guaranteed to receive tasks. When more tasks are sent out, we will post an update.

Cyclops what is preventing World Community Grid from sending out more work units as i think a lot of us would like to know what is actually going on at World Community Grid.

I haven't had any new work units for maybe a year.
