If s@h were not open, they simply would not get funded or otherwise
supported. They are required to back up their work and findings with
peer reviewed scientific papers. They are still active so presumably
they continue to pass the peer review tests and criticisms.

I believe your presumption may be incorrect.  SFAIK, there are no
"SETI" scientific papers from SETI@home that have been published.
There was a Hydrogen Survey paper awhile back that was a spin-off
science benefit from SETI@home, but I don't think there are any "SETI"
papers from the Berkeley team.  If somebody is aware of one, please
post about it here; I'm dying to read it.

There are some articles on public resource computing.
At the bottom of Erics homepage there is a list of what he has (co-)written.

There is not much related to S@H.
