Henk, I don't have a consistent set of statistics, but I do save the world test status page every few months. So I can tell you that on 2-apr-2001 it showed 38652 machines on 20983 accounts, and right now it shows 30186 machines on 15659 accounts. I'm sure I didn't just happen to catch it at its peak; I recall there being over 21000 accounts at one time.
WRT team '.', I recall a few months ago it seemed to be holding up some double-checks at the low end of the assignments, but it did eventually complete them all.
