The one week delay is intentional.  We have roughly 150 nodes, some of
which may occasionally have issues connecting to our centralized storage
and processing server, even though they are able to server DNS in there
local area without interruption.  This delay accounts for any temporary
connectivity issue between the edge nodes and our central processing
server as well as any scheduled maintenance that may delay transmission
of the raw data from the edge nodes.

We are constantly looking at ways to decrease the delay, however we need
to balance the requirement for timely vs accurate data.

Thanks John
