Funny my NAS had a HD fail about 3 wks ago, fortunately I run Raid 1-0, O.K. I loose 50% capacity but in principle I can survive 4 of the 8 disks failing provided they're all in different raid 1 pairs. I replace the failed drive & ordered a couple of spares.

Hi everyone,

On behalf of the organizing committee, I want to extend a warm invitation to all members of the BOINC community to join us at the 2017 edition of the BOINC Workshop, taking place in Paris at the Institut d'Astrophysique de Paris this Sept 6-8. The workshop will be an opportunity to reflect on lessons learned from existing projects, to discuss the status of BOINC and the community, and to plan ahead for the future. For many of us, it will also be a great chance to meet in person and get to know our fellow collaborators and interested parties of this open source project.

There is no fee to attend, but you do need to register on the website below. Please do so at your earliest convenience if you would like to come. If you need an invitation to obtain travel documents to France, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Also feel free to circulate the following flyer around, or point others to the workshop page https://cern.ch/bw17



Hope to see many of you there!

Hopefully the various BOINC clients for Windows, Linux, Android and Mac OS X will stay viable as OS versions progress, bugs are found, or security vulnerabilities are discovered.

exclude_gpu doesn't work on 6.10... and the Wiki does not say what version you must have for it to work. :(

- client: add per-project GPU exclusion.
If you put an element of the form
<exclude_gpu>
<url>http://project_url.com/</url>
<device_num>1</device_num>
</exclude_gpu>
in your cc_config.xml, that GPU won't be used for that project
