I know a lot of people are jumping to other projects because they're
dissapointed in SETI-BOINC.
<Puts conspiracy-theory hat on> Do you think that Berkeley could be
knobbling SETI-BOINC deliberately to serve up some users to other BOINC
projects? I know quite a few who have jumped ship, including a guy who
crunched over 25,000 SETI classic units and has a 'farm', running seven
PCs.
After all, BOINC is as much a Berkeley project as SETI and CPDN always
seemed to be a step ahead of SETI while not having the benefit of being at
Berkeley. Strange.

David Anderson was at Oxford for their open day and for some time afterward
helping the CPDN developers setup CP-BOINC - CPDN didn't run properley under
BOINC v3.xx, so they had to go to the next major revision - that's why CPDN
was the first project to run BOINC v4.xx...
