Hi,
I have a WU pending. When I checked the details I got what I consider a strange scheduling situation. I copied the information below. The actual WU can be found here: http://einsteinathome.org/workunit/1844628
Looks like this WU will have to be "book kept" by the server for a long time. At the time of this EM there is no projected date for completion. Why would it be done this way?

Give it a day or two and it will be sent...

I never had any doubt about the WUs being sent and the WU ultimately being completed. But since there have been a number of threads about server bookkeeping load and the recent switch to 14 day deadlines, this type of work assignment just doesn't make sense.
