GONUTS is under stress! The website is currently experiencing long-wait times and frequent time-outs due to the record number of students, groups, and annotations related to CACAO this semester. We are currently working on increasing performance -- please accept our apologies for the technical difficulties.
You can help reduce stress on the server by:
- not reloading pages frequently - this just adds
- opening links in new windows (so you can read the old page)
