4) It sucks that none of the old 3rd party tools will work. For example I
would like to see the status of computer running seti from *one* computer.
The third party tools are from third party people/vendors and when
they the program up and running they will put out the programs.

My concern is that the way BOINC is done, it's impossible to have
something like SETI Queue--WUs _have_ to go directly to the crunching
system, meaning all systems have to be able to directly access the
Internet. Complicates things a lot for me, but I'm working on fixing
that. Maybe I can get it done this weekend, if we don't have another
server crash at work...
