This must have been asked before but I can't find anything about it.
----------------------------------------I'm an ancient ClimatePrediction cruncher but as they don't have many WUs I moved to crunch for WCG. Being a team captain I received a message asking me to publicise the Covid-19 effort which I plan to do. What I can't remember is whether if I ask people to install the WCGrid app can they then also choose external research as I would also like to advertise the ClimatePrediction research and my team is Meteorology Group. So: can one install climateprediction or other research on the WCGrid app? Thank you, I hope no one this this is a heretical question...  |

WCG can run other projects and BOINC can run WCG projects.
----------------------------------------They are the same under the skin. WCG version has been security checked by IBM and used on their corporate PCs. Paul.
