Yet another BOINC project, unfortunatly another one that needs an invite code to join.

I hate invitation codes... :evil:

They just keep on coming. :D
At least a few of the latest seem to be taking a more mature approach to testing before going public.
Bonus points to their project managers. :thumbup:
Good to see.

I agree 100%.

As of beginning September it shall be possible to create public accounts.
Well, let's see what it looks like.

Hermann... just noticed you are there representing our Team! :D

Try your best to keep us up there, we'll join you as soon as we can! :)

I cannot understand it!

What is the first box?
Einladungsschl�ssel
Ein g�ltiger Einladungsschl�ssel ist erforderlich, um ein Konto zu erstellen.

Babelfish translation says:

Einladungsschl?ssel A g?ltiger Einladungsschl?ssel is necessary, in order to provide an account

and Doomeva's Year 9 German skills ended with WTF :!: :shock: :oops:

Google wasn't helpful either.

Einladungsschl�ssel A g�ltiger Einladungsschl�ssel is necessary, in order to provide an account.

Guess we'll never know. :lol:

PS: If you have to do something, I'm guessing everyone gets a unique invite code.

If not, Hermann can give it to us. :twisted:

Hi Neogen,

I did not have an Invitation key /Einladungsschluessel) either.
All I did was writing an email to Thomas Hilbig, the Project Initiator. Then he told his webmaster to create me an account. The project is still in testing, there are no real workunits to be crunched right now. However, they count for credit. There is still a lot of translating to do. As soon I have some time, I will try to assist those folks.

Anyone who wants to participate in the test should write to the webmaster Michael or the Project leader Thomas.

In so far is everything is beeing prepared for AMD-users to join in.

Hope to see you soon there.
Cheers Hermann

Decided to email Thomas. Will await for a reply. :)

EDIT: I've been let in. :)

EDIT 2: Done my 1st WU (losting 99.9% of work becuase of no checkpoints since BOINC decided to change projects :roll: ). 3,313.28 seconds. Granted the credits I claimed. Looks like that's how the credits work, since another person got the amount he claimed.

Hermann is User of the Day today!

I've joined too. :)

I won't join this one until Account Creation opens. Wanna try and make some kind of lead on Riesel and Nano-Hive first, plus there's a few other projects that i've joined lately that require some attention.

There's been so many new BOINC projects so far this year.

Shame I anit got more PC's, but thats something i definatly can't afford at this point in time.
