A write up would be great. We'll definitely post it in the FAQs. We should figure out a way to start crunching competition between schools. There would be football, soccer, basketball, and crunching.

Wonder if we could get crunching sanctioned by the NCAA? LOL |

Now if we get NCAA sanctioned, we will have to bow out. As most of you in the states know, Kentucky will only ever be a basketball school. If alumni think this WCG adventure will take away from our wildcats, then we'll be reduced to doing everything on typewriters again. Not to mention we'll all have to start abiding by all those recruiting rules - and who wants that???
Seriously, I'll get with everyone and we'll get something written up. It will be a few weeks. Right now is extremely busy for us. New servers, new machines, and the students return in just three days! Paul |

Someone should contact UofL and rub some "Wildcat" salt in.
If it's done right, you might be able to get half of the population of Louisville as well as all of UofL's computers crunching for WCG.  And so on. |

LOL, that's true. The cats always have a least one game a year in Louisville, and they will have thousands just at the practice.

Hiya Paul,
----------------------------------------Nice to have that many machines on board helping the crunch. Some hints would be handy for getting WCG easilly installed easilly, they I can try to convince our central computing services over here to put it on some of their lab machines (also using ghost and deepfreeze)- no hurry though we got another 4 weeks ish over here till we get our students back  Cheers Jeremy [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Aug 19, 2005 6:00:27 PM] |

Robsab,
Our growth curve peak is not yet there. We are a little over halfway in our deployment. We should have no problem getting to #1 on daily numbers, but we're shooting for #1 overall! We're at a huge disadvantage by starting so late in this. Paul |
