hey dirk it would be nice to have an app that linked all the up to date info for the team. That being said i am a newbie to being on a team but ive found that i have to go many places depending on what kind of info im looking for.BTW whats up with non boinc projects what r they how do i get in them and is there a separate database and credit system?

Non-boinc projects are those projects that can't be run from the BOINC client. You have to download the application and follow its instructions to install it.
A well-known non-BOINC project is Folding@Home. Some projects (e.g. PrimeGrid) have subprojects that are outside of BOINC, but who will count for your
total PrimeGrid score (and badges: some badges can only be obtained running non-BOINC subprojects).

Each project, BOINC or non-BOINC, has its own database and is free to choose their own credit system.
The stats sites depend on xml-files that are exported by the projects to show you your scores.

@Dirk - glad you noticed

@LAB -

Ototero is still updating our own stats - coz he's a legend
See the STATS link in the menu above
You will also find our wiki up there - over 250 pages, betcha can't get through them all :P

Bok's stats at stats.free-dc.org list both non-BOINC (aka classic) and BOINC stats (boinc stats are aggregated, classic are not)
http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?p...am=AMD%20Users

BOINCstats will give you a boinc-only view:

as far as projects go you can either read through our forums
http://www.amdusers.com/forum/forum.php

or the forum of the projects themselves.
I set up the RSS feeds to bring in the 'News' from each of the projects, but if you have/think you have an issue that's not discussed here then it's best to search the Message Board of the project you are looking at as almost always someone else has already posted about it and someone else may already have solved it.
