So they've sent out a few Windows test WU's and I got 2 on my main rig. The first ran for almost 8 hours and then stalled - 0 CPU, 0 progress. Suspending and then restarting did nothing. Restarted BOINC and both WU's errored out. Too bad they haven't seen fit to get their forums working so we can give them feedback.

Milkyway@home boards came up recently and this was added today. Interesting post on the goal of the project.

work is flowing and the project has added a host limit so more people can get work.

some of the new WUs will stall a cpu when it errors so keep an eye on your machines if you are crunching for these guys.

I got a bunch of weird terminations with their 1.07 app.  Exit with 0 condition and not output file.  I can't see that I didn't get credit, but the messages advised to reset the project.  I did, and don't expect to see work until after the 16th when my "remaining" wu become overdue.

Arrrrggghhhhh! (No, that's not pirate talk!)

I decided to sign up for this one. I'm a sucker for space projects.
