As the web page accessed from the BOINC Manager localhost SETI home page from a button "Your Results", would it not be clearer to call this something like "All Host's Tasks". After all, those tasks in progress are not really results until completed. The same applies to the "Results" heading in the "My computers" page. This would be more appropriately be headed "Tasks". It also should be noted that many refer to a task or result as a work unit. This is, of course incorrect, as a work unit is that which contains a collection of as many identical tasks (i.e. results) as are required to be sent, each to a different host. Keith |

This is a BOINC request, and not a SETI request. You should go to the BOINC forums and suggest this. Matching the software to the web interface would be smart on their part. My movie https://vimeo.com/manage/videos/502242 |

Besites, it is not all tasks, just the current ones. So maybe "Current tasks" would be better. BOINC WIKI |
