No work

You've had work from Einstein on the 17th of October and returned that one on the 23rd of October (see here). It's now the 26th. So that's 3 days, not two weeks.

Are you running multiple projects? If you are, BOINC is now most probably paying back CPU time given to Einstein to those other projects. Just wait patiently until the debt has been paid back. Also see this thread.

It's how BOINC works. Nothing wrong. :-)

I also seem to have heard nothing from Einstein since 13 October - and no response when asking for an update. I assume something will turn up eventually?

You might want to follow the steps I outlined here . I guess it's the same issue: BOINC is letting other projects catch up a bit.

Thanks Bikeman - I still haven't had anything from Einstein since 13 Oct. The relevant lines you asked for are:

Short term debt shows when the CPU will run any work present for this project on your computer, long term debt will show when it will fetch work again. Positive numbers show when it will do things, negative numbers show when it will wait to do something.

The numbers are seconds. So for the next 709,549 seconds (or thereabout), your BOINC will not fetch work for Einstein. That's 8 days if you're only running one other project next to Einstein. It'll take a bit longer if you run more projects.

However, the numbers seem to be for climateprediction.net, right? There must be additional debt entries in the client_state.xml file.
