And a lot of people have a pretty high RAC over here! Its an interesting stress-tester and far more productive than just running Linpack! |

So what happened to the Mac app/s? Sure would be nice if the db would let me choose a 'tar and sig too. |

I am a member of Allprojectstats.com and my points are not updating to their website. Are you aware of this problem? |

They ARE aware of it (and other things, like questions about Mac app etc.), they just do not care...

Pity that...as there are so many other projects available. |

Pity that...as there are so many other projects available. Yes, it is a pity. Just look at the front-page: Last update/news are from Dec 23rd! In August 2007(!) they announced a Mac application "soon" (http://www.cosmologyathome.org/forum_thread.php?id=37&nowrap=true#2216). No sign of it until today, not even an announcement. This project is obviously dying.

I hate to admit it but something is wrong. My team credits have not updated for a long time, but if I look at other teams, the credits are updating there. I mean, the science fascinates me and this gives me a way to be involved in it, but I buy the hardware, software, and bandwidth and then the electricity to run these computers. Besides a chance to remotely participate in the science, all the return is these crummy points. I am beginning to challenge the logic of even participating at all. |

This project is obviously dying. I would say it's already a zombie. Anybody who crunches here is probably just wasting his machines and electricity for absolutely nothing. Grüße vom Sänger

Can we have a weekly or even a monthly newsletter to help give us an idea of any discoveries being made and scientific papers due to this program? |

Hello Amis, We will try to provide more frequent updates. I will soon post such an update. However, I do not believe that a weekly, or even a monthly, update is practical or possible. Such large scale projects take time and efforts, and it is very unlikely that progress could happen so quickly. Please stay tuned in. Faik --- Member of The C@H Team! Can we have a weekly or even a monthly newsletter to help give us an idea of any discoveries being made and scientific papers due to this program? |

A yearly update is asking too much. This project has to be so low on Ben Wandelt's list that it's too much of a bother to really even explain what we're really doing. No site updates. No news updates. The WUs keep coming, but...Yeah, not sure I am not just wasting my time. Given how little BW cares about this work, wonder if the data will even be parsed. All I can see from it (possibly) is a paper published in 2009: http://authors.library.caltech.edu/16418/1/Elsner2009p6126Astrophys_J_Suppl_S.pdf |

A yearly update is asking too much. Interestingly, the domain was created and registered for seven years, but the University only renewed it for twelve months: Domain Name:COSMOLOGYATHOME.ORG Domain ID: D148862867-LROR Creation Date: 2007-08-13T19:09:40Z Updated Date: 2014-08-18T19:09:37Z Registry Expiry Date: 2015-08-13T19:09:40Z Registrant Name:UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS We shall see in six months if anyone has even remembered to renew it. |
