2015 has begun and the first micro challenges burst around us like so many firecrackers.
As John Lennon might have said: So this 15, and what have we done? Another year over, a new one just begun.
But first some cross-overs from the old year:
December 29 2014 to January 02 2015 - "Despite my age I don't live in the past, but in the future" 2nd Rita Levi-Montalcini memorial
We will enter the new year with Rosetta, organised by BOINC.Italy.

December 30 2014 to January 04 2015 - Theodor Fontane Memory-Race
My guess is that the ngb:setiteam wants to organise a Theodor Fontane Memorial-Race.
They replied they need a lot of memory for a memorial? You'd better watch your RAM while crunching....
