Cleaned a little bit of nonsense out of this thread.  I hadn't had a chance to check in with this thread... nor did Bitcointalk feel like notifying me of new replies yet again... as I'm currently recovering from a failure of my main desktop machine.  Fortunately I keep frequent and decent backups, and nothing important was lost.  The downtime for my rebuild and recovery put me in a time crunch on non-Eligius projects, however, and I've had to double up my efforts to catch up.

I sincerely appreciate the patience and confidence of the users sticking with Eligius through this admittedly rough transition.  I honestly fully expected everything to be setup and ready to go in a reasonable amount of time, but that just hasn't happened as planned.  I'm nearly caught back up on non-Eligius work and will get back to the getting the new stats side of things working ASAP.

The Eligius back end database and reward system have been functioning normally, and all mining is being counted appropriately.  As always, the public-faced web services are not directly connected with the core database and are not required for mining operations to work.
