OooOOops, sorry this is late - dang near fergawdaboudit! Deleting DDM and adding SETI, we have the following first draft ballot. Please check the Project Watch List, Newbie Projects, and Team Stats below. Any projects to add or delete? There's room for 1 more.

Number Field Sieve
OGR-28 (Non-Boinc) V
Poem
Primaboinca
SETI
Simap
SkyNet / POGS
Sztaki Grid
World Community Grid
YoYo
Vacation / No CPU POTM
Project Watch List:
Correlizer - Dead. May be relaunching?
Quantum Monte Carlo - Beta / re-launching
ABC - Project nearing completion / re-launch?
Mind Modeling - lack of work
OProject - lack of admin, project needs to mature
RNA World - checkpointing requires Virtual Machine, no work for short WU's
SubSetSum - Misc. tech problems
FightMalaria - Relaunching as FiND@Home
Folding@Home (Non-Boinc) - Lack of interest
Rosetta - Lack of interest
SAT - Lack of interest

Yeee-OUCH! Fixed it. Thanks!
Wow, just noticed this number at the bottom of the KWSN Team Stats. Did we kick in the afterburners?

Willy is having issues at BOINCStats:
http://boincstats.com/en/forum/8/9521,1#132803
Quote: | One of the webservers is broken and is currently undergoing repairs. During the repair BOINCstats may be (much) slower than usual and data may not be up-to-date.
It looks like a broken sas raid controller. Have to take the server with me for repairs.So, until it's repaired BOINCstats is running on one webserver which will make things slow.
The daily update was completed without errors but it's not on the webserver. This will fix itself.
To clarify what happened:
webserver3 went down (just locked up, nothing broken). webserver4 was working properly.
the PDU (to remote reboot a server) was unreachable so I could not reboot webserver3.
I drove to the data-center to reboot webserver3 and to see what was wrong with the PDU. The PDU was in an error state and needed a hard reboot which means power down on all servers
I powered down all servers, rebooted the PDU which worked properly after that. webserver3 booted just fine.
webserver4 did not boot. It only showed a blinking cursor on screen and it beeped continuously. This turned out to be the RAID controller. Without it the server boots (but without disks not much happens). I've reset the RAID controller to defaults but that didn't happen. Finally took it home for repairs.
So, in short: went there to fix webserver3, came home with a broken webserver4.
If the RAID controller is really broken I'm looking at a €529 replacement. Plus probably a re-install of the server. |

LHC / SixTrack ? (basic CPU app)
VirtualLHC ? (runs in Scientfic Linux under Oracle's Virtual Box) _________________

http://volunteer.cs.und.edu/csg/ is the new home for wildlife, dna, and subsetsum@home.
VirtualLHC is the new name for Test4Theory. gives ~ 600 points per 24hr unit. _________________

I've made a few recent spurts and jumps at rosetta within the last handful of weeks so i'd be up for that. We are only a few million away from passing those plain Fosters drinking Kangaroos from over upside down. Also it's meaningful science as well _________________

Since two Knights mentioned it, I guess we could add VirtualLHC, but what's the difference between that and Atlas@Home?
http://lhcathome2.cern.ch/vLHCathome/
http://atlasathome.cern.ch/ATLAS/
There has been zero production on the Citizen Science Grid (wildlife, dna, and subsetsum@home) for the past month. Should add it to the Project Watch List.
I would also like to see a push for Rosetta, a lot of Knights shrub it, but don't recall it has been PotM in quite a while... _________________ [img]http://stats.free-dc.org/cpidtagb.php?cpid=6533a276b3a1dde393be350eb3cfda70&theme=16&cols=5/.png[/img]

DNA is running regularly on there. They did some tests with Wildlife. Admin has been traveling a lot so taking time to do things, like export stats. He wants to use a new feature to keep each stat separate. So they will not blend into a single CSG name. They will keep their individual names.
He is trying to get a student to help with SubsetSum. Hopefully that will happen soon, then I can gain some hours on that again. |

I've messaged Travis and asked him to increase work on CSG as a whole. _________________

DNA was running regular... but now they are stopped.
I expect Travis will get it back up soon enough but I think nobody is helping him with it even though it's running on UND servers.
Wildlife has not had any work recently.
Subset sum hasn't started up again yet.
I would like to see DNA run uninterrupted for a month and see the reporting of XML files to the stat sites worked out for CSG. (still a work in progress).
The "zero production" is due to the xml file not being reported yet. _________________

Good info.... I added Rosetta back onto the ballot and updated our watch lists as follows.
Project Watch List:
Correlizer - Dead. May be relaunching?
Quantum Monte Carlo - Beta / re-launching
ABC - Project nearing completion / re-launch?
Mind Modeling - lack of work
OProject - lack of admin, project needs to mature
RNA World - checkpointing requires Virtual Machine, no work for short WU's
FightMalaria - Relaunching as FiND@Home
Folding@Home (Non-Boinc) - Lack of interest
SAT - Lack of interest
Newbie Projects:
iGEM@Home
VolPEX
Convector
Atlas@Home
VirtualLHC
DNA@Home active/no stat export
Wildlife@Home relaunching?
SubsetSum@Home relaunching? |

VirtualLHC/Test4Theory includes many initiatives
Atlas is a single initiative, or field of study. (also runs under Vbox)
Both seek to find the most beneficial collision that warrants an actual LHC run.
None of it pays well, but that's not why we're here...
ALSO "THE ATLAS@Home PROJECT IS STILL UNDER DEVELOPMENT, and it cannot be guaranteed that jobs will be free from errors or that there will always be work available"
I run all 3: SixTrack (processing actual collisions), Test4Theory & Atlas _________________

That triple-project would make a very cool PotM! nudge-nudge-Ni? The data processing requirements at LHC are astounding, equaling about 1% of all info processed in the internet. Boinc probably makes an insignificant dent in it currently. _________________ [img]http://stats.free-dc.org/cpidtagb.php?cpid=6533a276b3a1dde393be350eb3cfda70&theme=16&cols=5/.png[/img]

I helped find a prime number, and Pooh Bear found 2! (girls go wild)
