Naar aanleiding van de vragen over wat dnetc@home precies doet en van plan is op RC5-72, is er even overleg geweest binnen de crew, en is er een mailtje verstuurd naar d.net. Overleg loopt nog, maar uiteraard mag onze userbase ook haar mening geven.

Als jullie nog ideëen hebben over, of gedetailleerde ervaring met (het aanpassen van) de dnetc@home client, laat het dan hier weten, zodat dit meegenomen kan worden in eventueel verder overleg met distributed.net.

After some discussing in our own forum we have a question regarding team dnetc@home. We would like to know what the opinion of distributed.net is about dnetc@home being in the distributed.net stats and particulary the fact that if someone participates in dnetc@home the user can choose a team in BOINC and gets the BOINC-points but is listed in the distributed.net statistics as a dnetc@home user.
Questions have been asked on the forum of dnetc@home but were smashed by the admin there: http://www.dnetc.net/foru...id=96&nowrap=true#912
There is no warning when you register with dnetc@home that the points you get are counted towards the account of dnetc@home and therefor people may think they are scoring points for their own team instead of dnetc@home (currently there are 316 teams participating in dnetc@home).
The dnetc@home client also seems to distribute its own version (maybe only renamed) instead of downloading it from the distributed.net site.
Kind regards,
DPC
Dat is niet helemaal wat we hadden verwacht, maar wellicht kunnen we nog verder komen. Het verzoek aan ieder is om niet te reageren naar d.net zolang de crew nog in overleg is. Dit kan het proces alleen maar verstoren.Hi,toon volledige bericht
Most people participating in the dnetc@home project apparently only
care about the BOINC-specific stats offered on their website and not
the official statistics on stats.distributed.net
We have actually worked closely with both the dnetc@home and yoyo@home
groups to ensure that their users at least individually
distinguishable by a unique pseudo email, instead of a single email
address for all users (as they both originally were doing).
Additionally, we have implemented the server-side logic that joins
those pseudo users into the dnetc@home or yoyo@home teams
automatically, with the intention that those users access the native
BOINC team functionality on their own websites. We currently tolerate
the out-of-band redistribution of our client binaries, on the basis
that they have both been responsive to our requests so far.
We would prefer to have a common team system that could be shared by
BOINC and regular users, but there would be a significant amount of
additional work required to do this. At some point in the future we
may be able to offer an official BOINC server with native integration,
however we cannot estimate when that will be.
Thanks for your interest and your continued support. Let us know if
you have any further questions or suggestions.
