    Re: Citizen Science Grid

    My memory of the original intention of this was to have one centralized place to issue WUs for three separate projects that already exist. Which means my initial thought on this would be not to have a project of CSG, but issue updates to the other three projects. I don't know how this would work for people who don't have credits in the old projects, however.

    Another thought would be to include CSG as a new project, but subtract out the credits for the old projects, which would only count new CSG credits toward MMs. So:

    [CSG New Credits] = [CSG Export Credits] - [(Current Subset Credits) + (Current DNA Credits) + (Current Wildlife Credits)]

    The more I look at what I typed, the more I like this adjusted option. It keeps all MMs intact, gives us a new one to shoot for, preserves rankings on the previous projects, etc.
