Any word on Peta striking out on it's own? With the exception of yesterday, Peta has been finding a block a day which is better than the current payout per day on Eligius.

Is there anything we gain from Eligius other than a nice UI and the potential continued payout when the Peta miners are unlucky?

If Peta had been mining on it's own it would have pulled down 150 BTC in the past week versus the ~100 BTC paid out by Eligius.

Wow, 50% more a week... We just need a developer to create a nice UI... (that we don't really need that much, do we?). If the above is true (no reason to doubt you!

) what are we waiting for?

PETA was pretty lucky finding blocks last two weeks - a block per day.
If we calculate expected average time to find a block based on PETA hashrate and difficulty, it was about a block every TWO days. So, very lucky weeks. But, can we risk/bet such a luck will continue?
