I'm Ed Moran, living in Bellingham, WA after 35 years in San Jose. I've been crunching since the beginning, and now that I have too much free time I've been looking deeper into boinc. While I'm catching up on boinc and learning its deeper secrets I'm putting together a boinc beginner's portal-directory site, boinc.info, aimed to ease the newbie shock when beginners first arrive. The project list is live if you'd like to take a peek.

What I'm doing:

First pass cleanup - Import links/images, fix format, test links

Miscellaneous - done

BOINC Client FAQ - done

BOINC Acct Mgrs - done

BOINC Project FAQs - tips and tricks, acct trouble - done

Goal: Clean up to a passable 'go-live' quality

• copy links and images - Open the original boinc, compare the two entries and rebuild links and insert images.
• basic formatting - rebuild lists as '*' (hint: paste from bottom up), add cleanup breaks, strong, etc., passable enough to go live. This is formatting only - content is unchanged.
• test links - list broken links on to-do page
• to-do - list revisits on to-do page - big formatting jobs, old/odd tables, etc.
• notes - leave any notes and a 4-tilde tag for timestamp in the page's discussion.
