Who is this Challis Bloke Anyway?

The Team has recently joined NFSNet. NFSNet uses Number Field Sieve (NFS) algorithm for factoring large composite integers. NFS has been used for the factorisations of RSA-130, RSA-140, and RSA-512. The target numbers for factorisation are taken from the Cunningham "Most Wanted" List, which lists numbers for which the factorisation is considered desirable by the prime number community.
