There should be an option where we can select which charitable computing project we're working for under options. This could either be a specific project or suite of projects (health, physics, mathematics... or 'protein modeling', 'pi computation').

That option is already there!
If you look in your profiles list you find that option. But currently protein folding is the only one that's active! |

But currently protein folding is the only one that's active! ...okay...There is no option under 'options'... but you say it's an option under profiles... except that presently there's only one choice. I'll take your word for it. I suggest that we be able to change what project we're crunching for as an option under a single profile. |

I think they said that they are going to start 3-4 new projects per year. Since it just launched, my guess is that it would be at least a few months before they finish evaluating the next set of proposals and get another project set up to run. (And I think there are a lot of proteins that need folding, so they have plenty of time)

Scroll down till you see 'Current Grid Computing Projects'. Here you have checkboxes. When there come more projects available you can chose wich project you want to crunch in here. |
