Hi all,
There is another, and perhaps the most important reason, progress on
double-checking milestones has been slow. When a double-check is sent in
the server does not have enough information to know if a triple-check is
needed.
That info is in my master database - 3000 miles away.
If the PrimeNet assignments reports are to be believed, we have
double-checked all exponents through 3M and proven M(2976221) and M(3021377)
to be respectively the 36th and 37th primes in numeric order.

We still have a handful of exponents to go.
I was looking at the server's assignments out pages. I guess the
assignments in question must be non-PrimeNet

Let me rephrase something from my last message:
There should be 12 non-Primenet exponents left to finish testing
(if they aren't already) to prove both M(2976221) and M(3021377)
are the 36th and 37th Mersenne primes, respectively...

Hi,
There are 19 exponents that need triple-checking. I've just assigned them
to three volunteers. With luck, they'll all be finished up in a few weeks.
Regards,
George
