Abstract	A year-long trial has seen a large lightweight verification problem treated by an ad hoc distributed network of identical solvers. The trialled problem is the semantic analysis of the C code in the Linux kernel to exclude a common deadlock possibility. The aim of the programme behind the experiment is to develop a viable loosely coupled distributed formal method which a community of interested part-time helpers on the net can lend their computing cycles to as they will, or send their own verification problems to for solving.
