Hey, I'm a member of the Gridcoin community. The Gridcoin community has recently begun holding regularly scheduled 'Gridcoin Hangouts' on the Beyondbitcoin Mumble server to discuss matters related to Gridcoin, BOINC and Distributed Computing in an open and transparent format.
I'd like to extend an invitation to the next Gridcoin Hangout to the BOINC Management Committee: https://steemit.com/gridcoin/@cm-steem/gridcoin-hangout-003-rsvp-and-suggest-topics#@cm-steem/re-cm-steem-gridcoin-hangout-003-rsvp-and-suggest-topics-20160814t004358694z The invitation is also open to the entire BOINC community (not just the BMC), you can talk in the chatroom during the conference call if you're microphone shy. I'll be sending a duplicate invitation out on the boinc_dev mailing list as instructed by ageless in this post: https://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=10370&postid=63238 Cheers :) On Friday, 3 July 2015 18:42:10 UTC+1, David Anderson wrote: > > BOINC's funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation has ended, > at least for the time being. > This funding supported me, Rom Walton, and Charlie Fenton. > We're now working on other things, > although we'll stay involved in BOINC at some level. > > The BOINC project will continue, and will be run according to > a community-based model rather than centrally. > In essence, the people who contribute to BOINC now make the decisions > about it. > This model is summarized here: > http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/ProjectGovernance > and described in detail here: > > https://docs.google.com/document/d/1C6pU5RqidYBxk9oyAevm1yH1tn4Hw27oM8YpvsnR-gg > > > There will probably be little visible change. > The BOINC software will continue to work. > The translation system, Alpha testing project, BOINC web site, > message boards, and email lists will continue to operate. > However, any new development and major bug fixes to BOINC > will need to be done by volunteer programmers. > I'm confident that the BOINC community will meet the challenge. > > I welcome your feedback. > Please post it to [email protected] <javascript:>, > a new email list for discussions about the BOINC project as a whole. > > -- David > _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
