Achim Passauer, also from Europe, mailed me a couple of minutes after I had send the message to the list. We both check status pages regularly for progress and / or artifacts. Such as the change in the server not re-assigning exponents for factoring after they have expired. This morning when I got out of bed, I wanted to see if enough new results had been turned in for running a new report on the number of machines running Prime95 based on the file cleared.txt. Then I saw the new lines. I assumed there was some error involved, downloaded my email and found ... nothing. So I decided to write to the list without any comment, I was afraid some modification had been made to the reportgenerator and making wrong counts for two new categories. Well lucky we are, a new real candidate for #39.
