On behalf of all the members of the CPDN team I should like to wish you all a very happy Christmas. It has been an eventful year at CPDN. Andy and I have spent most of it wrestling with hardware failures, software misconfigurations, storage issues etc. Throughout this period we've had pretty solid support from all of our volunteers who have crunched their way through over 100 billion CPU cycles, donating the equivalent of thousands of years of CPU time to climate science research. Thanks again, and see you in the New Year. Jonathan Miller CPDN SysAdmin

CPDN will be taken offline at 9.00 am GMT on Thursday 10 November 2011. This is to facilitate the relocation of our project servers. It is anticipated that the downtime will be for no longer than 48 hours, but the project should be considered 'at-risk' until noon on 14 November 2011 GMT.

We apologise for any disruption, the project suffered a security incident after which we were forced to take the project down whilst we investigated. This incident has now been fully investigated. We are pleased to announce that the project is now back online again and functioning. For more information please see:

On 18 October 2011 the CPDN project server was attacked.

We have had to respond by taking the project offline.

I will provide more info as I have it, but I will be devoting my time to fixing the issues and determining the extent of the problem.

On behalf of CPDN I should like to apologise for the inconvenience this will cause
