Another virgin month? Here's a list...

ABC
Climate
Collatz
Cosmology
Einstein
Milky Way
Rosetta
SETI
Spinhenge
uFluids

Do we want to include the following non-Vault projects? We mentioned this last month, but I'd say someone needs significant experience with those projects to be sure we aren't left hanging.

DNETC
DistributedDataMining
EDGeS
RSA Lattice Siever
RNAWorld
Magnetism

I'm kinda getting interested in RC5-72, a non-Boinc Vault project that is attempting to decrypt a 72-bit RC5 cipher. Hey, there's a $10K prize!

Collatz had to be worth a tipple.

Ni!

RNAWorld has work, and not long WUs.

A good friends of mine was recently diagnosed with colon cancer and I have been moving a few cores over to the more biological/cancer type projects in his honor. I think I will be dedicating this next month to the same whether it's voted that way or not.

On a side note, I've reached the top of RC5-72 for the team! I switched one gpu away from dnetc on boinc over to the original dnet since, the boinc version won't pay out and we have gotten many vault points with only a little effort. I'd say we probably shouldn't do RC5-72 for a POTM (maybe I want to stay on top for awhile before the likes of Sir Galt fires up more cores...)

We could run Rosetta to honor your friend.
