Entweder nur ein backup-Server von Einstein@home oder Einstein@home alpha/beta, da die Credits schon etwas älter sind.

Meine Vermutung: Ist ein Testserver auf den ein Image der Userdaten zu Zeitpunkt X gemacht wurde, da die Nutzerzahl nur etwa 3/4 der aktuellen Zahlen entspricht, aber für ein eigenständiges BETA-Programm definitiv zuviel ist.

Da es bei den Apps eine neue Version der Gravitational Wave Anwendung gibt, denke ich, die wollen das Testen bevor es auf den richtigen Server geht...

Na also, wie ich mir schon fast gedacht hatte. Saenger klärt das ganze hier auf:

I've asked the E@H-guys yesterday on the event in Hannover about Albert@Home: It was never intended to get public participation, they were quite surprised that it was a ) known to anyone outside the institute and b ) some people even crunched for it. They were thinking about a test project after my question, but for now it's just a glitch that it had been accessible to outsiders, so don't expect any XML-exports.

Anyway, the credits of the imported participants got imported as well, if I look at my credits there, and the credits I had in E@H some time ago, it has to have been sometime in 2008. So if they start exporting credits, the old ones have to be cleared first.

Credit reset
The BOINC database on Albert@Home was (and actually still is) an outdated copy of that on Einstein@Home. This includes (outdated) credit gained on Einstein@Home, which would mess up stats if stat site would include Albert@Home. In order to get Albert@Home ready as an officiall public test project, we reset the credit records on Albert@Home.

Das Projekt hat eine neue URL: http://albertathome.org

Sehr Gewöhnungsbedürftig, die neue Seite

Suspending Albert@Home
Hi!

Thanks a lot for supporting our development by attaching to our test project Albert@Home in the past! However we found that we don't have a need for the project, and could make better use of the resources that are currently bound to maintain it. So we're shutting down Albert@Home for now.

The server itself will be reachable with a static information page, but there will be no forums etc.

When we have another need for a public test project, we will revive it and let you know. We'll keep the "user" DB intact, such that you can then login with your old credentials.

Again, thanks for supporting us for so long!
