 |

According to their website the project is dead
| Quote: | Dear volunteers,
Your contribution over the last 3 years to the AQUA@home project was critical for us to perform immense computations necessary for the advancement of our science and technology. We have published several scientific papers reporting the results of those computations, including our recent publication in Nature. We made sure to acknowledge your generous contributions in those papers, as your help was vital. At this time, however, we no longer have large computations requiring the computing power of AQUA@home. We therefore have come to the decision to shut down AQUA for the forseeable future. Thank-you again for the selfless devotion of your time, patience, and computing resources to our effort to progress the field of quantum computing.
Sincerely,
Neil Dickson

Ok. Since I stopped shrubbing that one a while ago, no loss to me.

I haven't shrubbed it in close to a month or so now so I'm not worried about it either

It's not coming back...ever. It's dead. Sponsoring company has killed it.
