Just a comment on my recent download schedule. It seems that my normal upload hour has been delayed by an hour. I have made the DST change but the server says I am an hour and change too early to receive new work. Is this a common practice among the physics community? Perhaps an application of quantum physics? Is the cat dead or alive?

Has anything shrunk recently? :-)
Cheers, Mike.

Old bug, seems to be related to Windows only, other projects on that platform have a similar problem.
