Yup not open again, there is nothing there to test, regardless of how many WU's you can see over there

Posted 18 Aug 2006 by Profile UBT - Halifax--lad
Post:
I think MUON1 should continue as they are. Their client is stable, highly optimised and does what the project admins want it to do.

I don't understand why projects should move over to BOINC - I think BOINC is possibly the worst project manager I've ever used. Personally, I prefer individual clients. The worst part about BOINC in my honest opinion is the credit system (we've all seen threads on project forums where arguments over credit has come up with fairness coming into the situation).


Simple solution don't use BOINC if your not happy with it

Calling all UK folks and anyone else!!

We're growing all the time - now over 510 members.

We support ALL the BOINC Projects

We have a very active forum (plenty of help, advice & fun to be had)

We have a dedicated Team website, with links to all the stats sites, carefully built up over time, so Team members can see where they are in the rankings).

And we like to have some FUN - hence the "Crunches" where we organise the Team members to crunch for specific projects, usually over a week-end once a month -this is just to build up some Team spirit.

We even have our own up-to-date per-project mailing list, auto-generated from each of the projects, (with thanks to David Anderson of BOINC for making a change to the BOINC XML's outputs after we requested this !!)

We have some other SECRET plans to generate even more team interest...will tell you more sometime.

So please pay us a visit:

Team website

Team Forum

We'd love to have you join us...!

Could have sworn that was Rom Walton.....


Unless he has changed his name to hide from us all, ROM has done some good work over @Rosetta helping to get rid of loads of bugs in Windows, still trying to track the 1% bug but it seems to have run away to hide at the moment

I have been wanting to try Ufluids, but rumor has it that there is a possibility that groups may profit from info gained from it.


Every BOINC project currently out will give groups some kind of profit if they find what they are looking for on the projects

exactly all the changes were for the new users to help them connect to the overloaded servers as BOINC got confused it wasn't a problem that could be tested for properly and showed up only due to classic closing


What? Don't they have punctuation where you come from?



last time i looked it wasnt a rule that messages have to be perfect the thing that brings the BOINC boards down is people been arogant and arsey to each other so what if a post doesnt have puncuation you can still read it to see what it says but the puncutation init as you read it if your really so bothered

They need to release new versions fast cause they don't want to scare away new users coming from seti classic. If they update it fast enough, the newest users will grab the newest app and wont' have the problems. It is a recommended version because if you are downloading the app you should get that one. You don't /have/ to upgrade unless you have one of the problems it fixes.

The new versions of BOINC are due to the massive influx of users over at SETI this brought up a whole hosts of problems within BOINC which no one knew exsisted as they only showed when the servers were overloaded. The team have worked hard to solve all the problems in the past week on a limited budget and staff

no one is forcing any users to update it isn't required if your BOINC client runs perfectly at the moment, people have choices, don't downlaod it, download it or quit BOINC never to be seen of again
