Dunno if anyone read this, but you might want to. Especially F$ and Fogle. There's some important/interesting stuff here.

Hmmm, and no one mentioned poor credits?

They did. 3 times actually :D It's in the slides. Seems what they're pushing for is the WCG credits matching the BOINC credits. No more of this 1/7 garbage. New badges were also mentioned a couple of times.

That would really pick up interest in the project. I hope I can land enough BETA WU's to carry me over into a badge.

My issue with the survey is how skewed it could be in regards to community representation. 15K+ respondents? Out of how many active users? My worry is with all the "DA" acolyte types trying to speak for the majority. Too bad we can't ship them all off to the next Ground Zero event.......

Anyhoot, I'll take a look-see.
