World Community Grid: Team UserFriendly.Org by Didactylos2006-11-19 12:55:59
  What can I do for you? by Didactylos 2006-11-19 12:55:59
If you are hesitating about joining, please tell me what I can do to sweeten the deal.

Things that are already on the way include:

  • A project focussed solely on cancer treatment (This is coming very soon now, but I'm not allowed to give you more details yet.)
  • Certificates for smaller point increments, for people without thousands of computers.
  • Shinies courtesy of UserFriendly.Org - T-shirts, mugs; we're still working out the details.
And things we already have:
  • Support for Mac OS X (BOINC for PPC and Intel.) Just follow the sign up link, it's now an official platform.
  • BOINC is now available for restricted Windows users. Read my instructions here.
  • I have heard reports that WCG will run on FreeBSD, using BOINC and the Linux science application binaries, and a bit of magic.
  • Tools to aid in site-wide BOINC Windows deployment, with one-click MST creation.
Things that you have requested:
  • (Remind me if I've forgotten anything.)
What else do you need? And of course, if you want help setting any of this up, just yell.
