Perhaps you could explain why the CMS WUs need to be so short?

Can't you make them bigger?

None of those reasons are valid, and the hassle and security issues of having to separately register for forums on another team's network far outweighs any of them also.

Moderators can be assigned here as well, and the newest BOINC server code keeps the news section alive even if the database is down.

RKN needs to keep it's team identity separate from the project identity.

But why should we have to register on another (competing) team's forum to provide input into the project?

The standard BOINC-provided forums are fully integrated with the project and users accounts, so no separate registration is required.

Yes, and there are plenty of other BOINC projects who have been running for years that still hide behind or use "beta" as an excuse for everything that goes wrong.

The incorrect RAC is exported in the stats. The bad value is now on record at the external stats sites.

I increased your rac, so you can create a profile and check the pages.
yoyo


Wait a minute! How do you artificially increase someones RAC? Isn't that screwing with the stats?

Server appears to be in distress again - not sending or receiving work.

It doesn't seem to be working very well. The Server Status page comes up in German most of the time, from the English home page.

I thought this project was located at the Rechenkraft.net e.V. research facility headquarters, running on their equipment?

How did you ever expect to go public if the server was acquired at a specification that can't handle a few test users?


What is the specification of the current server, and what do you plan to acquire? People should know that before they are asked to donate to a black hole.

Nothing here, two days later.

Must have kept the WU for the "internal" group again.

Just another way to scam credits for your own team, like you did when stealing the user and team points in your dNET fiasco.

And just as many good reasons to use the integrated forum, not the least of which it doesn't require a second registration on a foreign forum.

I guess this is just a rechenkraft-whatever private party.

Why is it that team has so many members, and the other teams can only have one?

No, thanks.

Why can't you use an integrated message board?

For some reason, I can't post to the message boards, even though I'm logged into the project's BOINC site.

The Message board preferences don't seem to work either when updated on the My Account page.
