Gridcoin - Sourcefinder has (beta) work-units again

After a long period of very limited work, Sourcefinder is producing work-units again.

Currently the application is in Beta, so you should enable Run test applications in the preference menu to receive WUs (see picture below). This link will bring you directly to the section where you can modify it.

Initially there were issues with files that didn't download properly but this has been resolved. Work-units are now completing correctly and providing credits as planned.

Keep in mind that this is a beta-application and there could still be issues. You can monitor the latest developments here on the project forum.

Hopefully we will now see a steady flow of project work in the coming period.
