1) Message boards : Number crunching : Validation of New Key tasks (Message 92) Posted 9 days ago by mikey Post: Come on Admins answer the question. When will the new tasks get validated and show up in bok's stats? I could not find an easy way to reach out to an Admin so I took a chance and tried to email Ido Kaminer who is one of the listed Active research / support members Bill F I have 911 pending validation!! mikey

3) Message boards : Number crunching : GPU application? (Message 64) Posted 9 Dec 2023 by mikey Post: The source code of the app, if i'm not wrong, is open. So everyone could help the development of a gpu app! No one from the admins team can answer? I too beleive the source code is open but the actual data needed to create a set of tasks is not at most Projects to keep people from creating their own and cheating. A gpu task is similar at each project but the way the task works is not because of the input data in and the result they are trying to get back. The user Petri of the GPU Users Group can tweak a gpu task, for Linux only, and make it faster while still giving the same results because he has acces to the latest software to do it but he STILL needs to be approved by the Project to do it. I don't know if he is interested in actually writing a gpu task from scratch though, he's done more tweaking at several Projects instead. On the other hand there is a Project Admin message sytem where they can ask for help about anything, sadly though most don't use it when they need help instead preferrring to 'figure it out' by themselves.
