THIS is the really genial thing of boinc ...

I'm running two projects, one is in "alpha" state, but the results are used for science. If one of both projects has no work, my client switches immediatly to the other one and tries to get work from this one.

This worked nearly perfect, only the last weekend, both projects had big outages, and my clients ran empty ...

More projects are announced to come for boinc, so, give it the time ...

And, do you know, that boinc is designed to work on free available software-modules ? This seem to be one big point; for BOINC most of the databases and scripts had to be new designed / developed.
