SETI@Home Transitions To BOINC!
“The team at SETI@Home have finally released their highly-anticipated new
client software based on the BOINC (Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network
Computing) software platform. This new platform promises transparent version
upgrades, more efficient work unit distribution, and the ability to
seamlessly integrate other distributed computing projects that are also
using the BOINC standard. For now, SETI@Home is allowing both the Classic
and BOINC clients to run, but eventually they will shut down the Classic
data server and force everyone to upgrade. You can read more about the
transition here.”

Was planning on making a Seti@Home page on http://skit.id.au but never quite
got there. Going to have to wait for some nice little web apps to be built
to get juicy data from BOINC before I start on it. :)
