you posted on the front page: October 2, 2007 The Forums are Working... Sort of It looks like the message boards are at least functional. There are still some errors to be fixed, but at least they are useable. This means I can start getting some feedback from you guys! Also, I found the bug in the code, so if you have gotten work and it ran really slowly and caused your computer to do some strange things I should be able to fix those very soon. But my PC's are not getting anything. I have 1 Vista and 2 XP boxes registered, but they do not show up in my profile. My team also does not register on my workstations. I hope the feedback helps. |

As of this writing it looks like only 32 test workunits have been created so don't be surprised if in the near future you find yourself getting that out of work message. So far of the ones I have received they have either ended with the Maximum disk usage exceeded or the Maximum CPU time exceeded errors. me@rescam.org |

If you want to test if there is any work, go to the projects tab, highlight MilkyWay@home, then hit the update button... if there are work units and your platform is supported you'll get something, but I have yet to get some 100% bug free programs up, but hopefully this week I'll have something operational. Just FYI that will not work with the newer BOINC clients if the participants work cache is already full with work from other projects. Older clients had a workaround by suspending the other projects and then updating. me@rescam.org |

I haven't gotten too deep into debugging this, but hopefully I can have it fixed for you soon! You certainly are a very busy guy tonight, and a very productive one! :D Regards, Bob P. |

I got a question about work what we will get . How long do you expect it will take to crunch a workunit ? And how long we will have to crunch a unit. Deadline time ? |

Thanks for fast reply :) One more thing. How much data you will need ? some project have few milions work units and misson accomplished. This will be the same , or it will be unlimited work for many years ? |

One more think ;) What time period to the future will cover workunits. Bilions of years ? Or where will start a workunit . 2007 ? or from big bang ? |
