This answer may already be out there but seems to have eluded me. Of all the projects currently running, which is the closest to being completed and being shut down?

CEP Phase 1 finishes sending out new WUs in about 21 days. While there is a Phase 2 we have not seen any betas yet and there will be a new badge (if you care about them).
RICE is next with a schedule to finish in Feb 2010. I don;t think there is any follow up Phase or additional work for RICE so I think Feb may really be the end of that project for WCG. |

Hello Steve WCG,
Good thing you equivocated. I have heard a backroom opinion that Rice is going to last until 2011.  Lawrence |

There's a reason WCG don't publish this information. That is because it's a guess at best. Maybe a better informed guess than, for example, Steve's. But it's a guess all the same.
Sekerob tries to provide a better estimate based on actual grid performance and project weight compared to the estimated work available. Sekerob's short term projections are really impressive, but for the long term estimates - pick your favourite crystal ball :-D |

It appears in the crystal ball there is a forthcoming break in Flu, but not so in Rice.
This is contrary to my expectations. Cheers |

Dengue drugs - phase 1 - possibly temporarily, pending a start on phase 2?
