World Community Grid is happy to announce that you are now able to see your team's statistics by project! The statistics are also available in XML format so team statisticians can create all kinds of new graphs and charts! Read more about the XML interface in this FAQ.

In addition to monitoring your team's statistics by project, your team's captain is now able to challenge other teams to compete for contributions to a specific project! See if you can recruit new members to your team to contribute to your favorite cause!

In the News & Media section, there is a new video to watch about the Nutritious Rice for the World project featuring Dr. Ram Samudrala and Michal Guerquin.

The Research Proposal submission schedule on the Submit a Proposal page has been updated for dates in 2009 and 2010.

There is now a link to the System Requirements FAQ on the research project pages (in the right sidebar) so that people looking at projects can more easily determine if they can run a project in which they have an interest. We have also added a FAQ containing the download sizes for the various components of each of the active research projects.

Finally, the following items have been corrected:
- The checkbox for automatically opting-in to new projects was not staying checked after saving My Projects. It will now be saved and displayed correctly.
- Challenges that compete based upon the increase in contribution were calculating the increase incorrectly. They will now have the baseline stats properly computed.
