I got some tasks today (25th), a few of them even validated too.

Santa has come early.... I have just gotten some rare w/u's

might be they are doing some more control work.

We are testing required changes to the scheduler and feeder to resolve the corrupt/truncated "os_name" and "os_version" entries such as "W"/"W" for some hosts, as reported by users in the forums, and to resolve frequent "stuck" feeder states where "No tasks available for platform" is logically incorrect by hr_class, yet the tasks populating the feeder shared memory segment remain unassigned by the scheduler passes and manual intervention is required to get work flowing again.
Passes through uploaded results that have not been credited by the new system will begin next week, to backfill missing credits. We have been performing dry runs to establish correctness. As a precaution, we will be running the program in multiple passes starting with the oldest uploads, to the most recent.
Volunteers have reported that the API sometimes shows an invalid state for multiple results, where only one result is marked valid, which should be impossible. Preliminary investigation points to the new MCM1 assimilation procedure interacting with the transitioner. The new MCM1 assimilation procedure acts to validate and credit all in progress results for a workunit as soon as it has consumed any pair/quorum of files, whether original 0 and 1 results or resends 2 and up, that have passed validation. We will review this issue in full and report our findings, whether a bug in the assimilator, or poorly modeled interaction between assimilator transactions and the transitioner, which is where we expect to find an explanation.

WCG seems to be working correctly on my computers. I am getting the downloads and the points credited seem to be correct as are the number of units processed. The only issue I'm seeing is that I still have a large number of units still Pending Validation, dating back to 8/23.

Is the validator up and running? I have a lot of tasks where both my wing man and I are waiting for validation.

Or rather is the validator working as intended, validating some work units and forgetting to validate other work units?

Edit: Never mind...it is a known problem and it appears they are trying to fix it and it like everything else here it will take an unspecified amount of time...
