There is a new BOINC pre-alpha out which is undergoing testing.. No problems so far. The ones that have popped up have been fixed.

It's a BOINC version of Riesel Sieve, and Bryan plans to eventually get the LLR portion to work as well, but that's up in the air.

Find the main page here.

Join our team here.

So far it's Windoze only.

And account creation is already off, but I'll keep an eye out.

I'm considering a new BOINC project and I was wondering if I could get some of our merry band to join...

I want to use the power of distributed computing to discover the very best pick up line to use when meeting a lovely lady...

I want to call it 'What'syoursign@home'...

Whatcha think???

The sign up phase lasted about 5 miliseconds. I think they have a grand total of 12 users.

They say they have 50 users, probably most Synergy and Free-DC.

Last time I ran a WU.. anywhere from 9 mins to 1 hr. Average time lately is 30 mins on a X2 4200+. Haven't worked on it for awhile, as i'm trying to finish off a very large SoB Sieve range. So far i've gained 2 places for 400 points on the DC-Vault.

For those who missed it the first time, 50 new account slots have been opened. Enjoy!

I think those 50 slots lasted approx 6 milliseconds this time. At least sign up is slowing down.

I can't find the link to create accounts even though they say account creation is enabled.

Okay it is a bit weird on how to join, you have to attach to the project first and then update all your stuff on the website.
