Suggestions for FAQ changes

In Sekerob's excellent FAQs:
In the post:
BOINC: When Client-Server Communications Started to be Troublesome , the technique of exiting and restarting BOINC to attempt to clear stuck file transfers is not mentioned. (This may be deliberate)??
Also, would it be better to rename that post to something like "BOINC: Client-Server Communications Problems"?

I think that the FAQ Index should be the first post in the FAQ Forum, not buried down where it is put by sorting on date-of-last-post. If the forum software does not provide for this, perhaps the index could be moved to its own "forum", and shown immediately before the FAQ heading on the main foum headings page. - HTH

Re: Suggestions for FAQ changes

On your second note, the index is at the top of the SH forum, except the last time refreshing the placeholder it was not registered as a reply, thus sat further down. Now it sits right up again.

On your first part let me mull this over. I've got a ton of sand and stone to clear from the gate after 2 days of torrential rains pitted against my little hill. The sum of the last 48 hours exceeded that of the previous 320 days this year.

Re: Suggestions for FAQ changes

Is it also possible, to take out some of the graphs that aren't used for the Supplemental Performance & Project Charts?

I mean i'm sure we all know about WCG changing over from UD to Boinc. Also the Run Time Average by Calendar Day hasn't been updated since July. Also for the WCG's CPU Years & Member's With Results, I believe it is showing the formula instead of the answer shown (ie see WCG's weekly CPU Years & Results Returned)

For graph number 13, I think this needs to be fixed - (22.E+06)

Other than that, it looks great, I like seeing how far each project has come, wish it could be updated on a daily basis and not once a week but oh well.
