Re: [Prime] EFF award official announcement

The EFF acknowledged the discovery very quickly after GIMPS formally
applied just a couple weeks ago.  There was no delay on the EFF's part
(or GIMPS)--the guidelines require publication, that takes time.

In case anyone here missed it, GIMPS has be officially acknowledged by
the EFF as the winner of the 10 million digit prime search. Check the
web site for details. It has taken over a year since the actual
discovery.

Woohoo!

We now have a GIMPS wiki page, but no one has put anything on it yet:

I have some stuff I want to do there, but other more urgent matters take
precedence for now.
