A recent post about QMC@home sparked a bit of interest from the lurking Boincers on the boards. And even a few signups to the QMC OCUK team.

This got me thinking.... (don't panic )
How much interest would there be in an occaisional (maybe weekly) Boinc newsletter type post from me rounding up anything going on across all the projects currently available to Boinc?
What I'm suggesting:
News of project results
News of project gremlins/solutions
News of new projects/account creation enabled/open beta/fully live
New starters (maybe)
Team OCUK progress in each project (maybe)
What I'm not suggesting:
Detailed stats of dumpage and stompage like Rich99's Folding updates
(I've got no idea how to implement it and that's what stat sites are for. )
Using this as a vehicle for stealing Folding@Home Members
The intended purpose:
Improve understanding of the diversity of Boinc projects. It's not just martian hunting, you know..
To stimulate more Boinc Discussion on the boards
and so maybe bring some Boinc lurkers out into the open and get more active posters.
To try and give an insight into the science behind all the crunching and some discussion about that.
(There are some knowledgable people on the OCUK boards and I want to leech their knowledge )
Most likely time for an update would be Friday afternoons as I work a four and a half day week.
So...
Is it worth me doing? Who'd read it? What do you want to read in it?
Any and all comments below please.
