indeed - for now only web and forums are back online for public - we will restart boinc soon, and we will announce it thank you for waiting. thank you for your support. work units are ready - new tasks have been prepared. More science updates in the pipeline. thank you igor Welcome back, I (and perhaps 1 or 2 others) missed you. I wonder if I could comment on your "We're back" accouncement? It does not seem to mention anything about the fact that BOINC is not yet restarted. If it does, and I missed it, I apologise. I suspect, however, that quite a few people are here for the BOINC rather more than for the web and forums. So your announcement caused great excitement and then great disappointment . Is "disappointment after excitement" what you would like your brand to be known for? If not, perhaps you could consider a little (more) "expectation management" in your announcements. Welcome back, anyway. I hope to start crunching again soon. |

Apologies for the ambiguity - but precisely - our goal was to release a bidirectional communication with volunteers and gradually start the full WCG, including boinc.
thank you igor |

I hope 'soon' does not mean 'another 2-3 months like the rest of the migration'...  |

There is nothing ambiguous about "Website and Forum Restart! "

My appreciation for the questions that have been asked and the circumstances explained and the answers that have been given by Admin and contributors.
Hopefully and confidently we all will be up to speed and crunching fully within a couple of days. I personally purchased a new DELL XPS with a basket full of threads and am anxious to acquire some quality work for the machine to process. The XPS is also equipped with a RTX 3080 GPU and I likewise hope to acquire some quality work for it to process..BET of Austin Texas USA |

It wasn't specified if the work servers were online now so I tried getting some work and got a failure. Whether this because the work servers aren't up yet or there's a high demand. I think the announcement by WCG has been VERY clear that only forum and the actual web site has been officially reactivated, not one word that any actual WU stuff, including sending new WUs, has been reactivated so far...Ralf |

work units are ready - new tasks have been prepared. [But there is no http connection to your servers, so I guess your not ready to go public yet] More science updates in the pipeline. thank you igor That was the 22nd. |

Oh my goodness, I'm so glad I finally remembered to check the posts on this forum. lol. I have been fiddling and tweaking various settings, thinking that the problem was on my end. Even downloaded a new BOINC.
