There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Nick Feamster (Computer Science) and other researchers working on the BISMark project have just released a BISmark measurement router which monitors the performance of the internet. Because this is done through a router, researchers will be able to distinguish between performance issues caused by an ISP or a user's home network.
