Register your "BOINC WIDE" team name. A new function! The ability to register your team name as a "BOINC WIDE" team name is now official. This new function means that if you go and build "Your Team" on this new website, that team will be created "Exactly" the same on any new project from now on. Its official in 3 places; 1) It was added as a new team founder "Management Function" a few hours ago on SETI@home. 2) So it is now in the BOINC source code for any other boinc project that updates their code. 3) Its on the BOINC website News; http://boinc.berkeley.edu/index.php This is a link for any team founder that wants to register their team as a"BOINC WIDE" team. http://boinc.berkeley.edu/teams/ Any existing project that is failing to import this team list, please notify them. Ask them to read THIS page and to update to the latest server software. Moderators; No harm to sticky this message. |

To be fair, this message should be stickied!. Some team founders are not aware of this and it is important! |

To be fair, this message should be stickied!. I'm with on this one Johnney. I'm an Administrator for Team England and founder in a number of projects for Team England, been around in teams and groups on BOINC, and knew nothing of this until your post here. Thanks Johnney and let's get this stickied please! flaming balloons |

To be fair, this message should be stickied!. Ice, have you done it? My teamfounder told me, that this does not work. |

To be fair, this message should be stickied!. Champ, It works fine. There are a couple of things to remember! 1) This is a brand new function so its only going to work from now onward. 2) This will only work on current projects that have updated there "Config.xml" file with the piece of code for importing boinc wide teams. (You can assume None have done it so far)(That is why your team founder said that Champ) 3) Any "Brand New" boinc project from now on will have this code in the server software so new projects will update the boinc wide team list once a day. 4) Worth remembering that the vast majority of the current list of projects that we know about (70 approximately) will never install this piece of code. My guess is we would be lucky if 10 of them do, in the next year or 2. 5) If the founder does not validate his email address just like it says on the registration page, his team will be ignored from the list. |

Lacking some, a lot of computer language please explain the term 'stickied'. I have seen this many times and still don't quite understand it. http://boinc.mundayweb.com/teamStats.php?userID=14824 |

To be fair, this message should be stickied!. Yes champ, I've registered the England team in the BOINC-wide, but not done anything about the automated updates yet. We are currently having a poll in the Team England forum to vote on King Henry V being the founder in all Team England projects. If this is confirmed as a winner (most voting "aye !") then we will be implementing the automated updates. flaming balloons |

Lacking some, a lot of computer language please explain the term 'stickied'. I have seen this many times and still don't quite understand it. " Stickied " means that it would be kept at the top of the page no matter how long it goes without a post. Pretty good idea for this thread since I didn't see it till now....and didn't know about the " Boinc Wide " deal until I went into the management section for my team.
