    Please, can you provide a URL? I'm not sure what's meant by the different stages of validation.

      I don't know what you've seen either, but I can imagine three interpretations of "three stages of validation":

      1. The numbers of Results that are
      - "received but not validated" (should be very few on most projects)
      - "validated by itself, awaiting quorum for the workunit"
      - "assigned credit"

      2. I can imagine a project where the validation process indeed takes a noticable time which might make sense to split up in three stages. However there is no project I know of to which this applies.

      3. Assuming a quorum of three one might list the numbers of workunits which have one, two and three successful results returned.

        John,

        maybe we have a different understanding of "validation". AFAIK a Result coming in is first checked ("validated") for syntactic correctness etc. using "check_single" of the (project-dependent) validator. Then, when a quorum for the WU has come together, it is compared with the other results using "match_two". The "check_single" was what I meant when writing "validated by itself".
