Ueli,

I still see credit for you on the page, so why do you care where the old WUs have gone? Old work stays only long enough for everybody to finish it and for credit to be granted, a little longer than that, but not muchmore than 10 days. Once all the "bookkeeping" has been done the old work must be cleared from the server, to make room for new work information. All credit information stays with you.

I hope that this answer os satisfactory.

Michael

Note also that while the

Note also that while the workunit/result is cleared from the DATABASE, the output of the work (a set of files) are NOT cleared from our server! They are collected and used in the postprocessing stage of our analysis. So while the visible signs of your work are gone from the database, the credits remain, as well as the scientific results.
