Hi,
Here's the forum announcement, which will include updates about the onboarding process as they happen, and also includes links to two threads to ask questions and receive answers from the WCG team. |

I've posted the announcement to Reddit's 1.8 million member Coronavirus forum.
----------------------------------------But it's liable to be buried under a mountain of news. Other Reddit forums have been helpful in directing computing power to COVID projects. If you've got an account, mind adding a quick upvote here in hopes things get trending? https://www.reddit.com/r/Coronavirus/comments..._help_scientists_seeking/ [Edit 1 times, last edit by Dayle Diamond at Apr 1, 2020 2:41:35 PM] |

Uhm, any idea how long?
----------------------------------------I know the first climate project took over a year, seems like we would be under pressure to be faster... Also heard folding at home (or something like that) had one going, not going to switch over though.  |
