Hmmm sure u read right? Im running 3.20 and its working somewhat fine. The 4 version isnt out yet for a long long time is my guess. But then again what do I know :-)

There's some bug or something. SOMETIMES it tells you you need to get "Version 4". But if you ignore it, shutdown BOINC, wait a bit, restart BOINC, then it doesn't complain any more. (At least, that's the way it worked for me.)

Switching the S@H project was a mistake, and has been undone. Version 4 is in Alpha testing, and is incompatible with the version 3.xx project code. BOINC v4 will not run S@H or predictor yet, and when the project switches, everyone will have to switch at once in order to get work.
