Tell them to ask again after they've released a stand-alone client
that doesn't involve BOINC but instead presents the same interface as
SETI Classic.  After that, I might care enough about whether the project
continues to consider donating to it.

The Boinc manager has proved itself to be very useful and reliable. Try it again?

Special instructions:

Also, you can make the s@h-client screensaver look very much like the old original.

There's also some good new stuff to improve the search such as the enhanced client to give x2 the sensitivity. There's also the new multibeam receiver (ALFA) that combined gives x30 the volume of space as searched for at the present sensitivity. And others:

Looks like some good advancements.

Sorry, but there is the cost of a little change for such advancements. The original experiment ran a very good run!


What don't you like about Boinc other than that it is "new" and has more features?

Happy crunchin',
