BOINC Alpha Testing for 6.8
Howdy Folks,

GridRepublic has been working on a Facebook application for use with Volunteer Computer via BOINC. While the Facebook application isn't quite complete yet, the 6.8 client will be focusing on features and functionality geared toward that effort. We are looking for the client software to be finalized and finished by mid-June.

To that end the only new features that are going to be included with this client version is the new screensaver framework and the ability to attach to an account manager via a web browser cookie.

A new BOINC-based client will be making its entrance next week, we will be focused on that until it is ready to go. After the new client is wrapped up we will follow up with an updated GridRepublic client followed by a BOINC client. The new client has a hard deadline of mid-June.

GridRepublic has updated their server-side software to put cookies on your system during the sign-up process to help test the new cookie attach mechanism. We have packaged up an experimental client with the new features to begin testing and we will be following up with the new client software as soon as I get the new skin and artwork.

In order to test the cookie mechanism you'll need to create a new GridRepublic account at http://www.gridrepublic.org/. When it gives you the link to download the new client click on it and then abort the download. Launch the experimental client. It should automatically attach to GridRepublic and then attach to whichever projects you have signed up too. The supported browsers are Internet Explorer 5.x+, Safari 3.x+, Firefox 2.x+. If you use a different browser go ahead and give it a try, let us know if it works.

To see the new screensaver you'll need to suspend the client before letting the system start the screensaver. Other ways include letting the client go idle, or the only active tasks do not support graphics. This new screensaver component is OpenGL based, at some point we hope to incorporate project news via RSS feeds and the like. For now it displays the basics.

I'll be updating the BOINC Alpha website with the instructions for testing the cookie attach process and new screensaver framework after this email goes out.

Here are the links to the experimental clients:
