BOINC has been nominated for a prize at the 2024 forum, and has passed initial hurdles; the next and last step ("Phase 3") requires public votes. The award would be a very nice boost and validation for BOINC and all our projects; if we can get our communities to vote, we should have a decent shot at this point... Voting is pretty simple, takes just a few minutes; instructions are here. (*The deadline for votes is Sunday: 31 March 2024, 23:00 UTC+02:00) ID: 10546 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Most of the links are crossed out, so not sure where to go after that. I have till May to work it out I think so I will try again later. Conan ID: 10548 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
