Founder change request - SETI

Post by UBT - Timbo »

Hi all,

Oops..is a coup d'etat under way?

Just had this email from SETI@home:
Team member Miss Lelith has requested you to hand over
the privileges and responsibilities of team founder to him in SETI@home.
   
Visit http://setiathome.berkeley.edu to change team founder or decline user's request.
   
If you do not respond to this request within two months, Miss Lelith will be given the option to become the founder himself.
Needless to say I have graciously DECLINED this request...

And perhaps if Miss Lelith crunched a few more than the 110.54 credits they currently have, then I might look more favourably on this in the future... :wink:

regards,

Tim

Call me thick (and justifiably so) but I can find no trace of any miss, near miss or indeed mizz among our members.

Does this imply that anybody can arbitrarily demand that a team founder status be handed over to them as it suits them?

This smacks of the attitude of the Argentine forces in 1982. I went to sort them out, and despite the additional years (and inches) under my belt, am always available for similar gigs, and have many like-minded oppos.

In the interests of Political Correctness the gender, race, nationality, religion or sexual preference of potential targets will be disregarded in any operations mounted.

Wonder if "she'll" be their new leader ?

(PS And if it turns out "she" has a 1,000 host farm of PC's, then I'll resign....!) :wink:
