Wishlist for BOINC

This applies for all the platforms -- how about showing the accumulated debt (LT and ST) on the project tab??? I've been crunching for years and especially with 6 projects it is a pain to go digging into the files for each project to see how much debt has built up. It would be nice to if the BOINC programmers could just add too more columns and show us the debt numbers. Comments??

Use BOINC Debt Viewer (Or BOINCDV for short). It'll also be able to reset the debts, if need be.

Real is just a matter of perception.

The latest versions we're testing have a new Properties button in BOINC Manager with which you can check up on all info about how your computer is doing on that project. It also shows your STD and LTD numbers.

Expect this button to be available in BOINC 6.4

Hi Im new to the community and was wondering what this debt was?
And also in refrence to another wishlist I think audio would be an awesome add-on as long as you could turn the feture on and off. Maybe also have spike, triplet, guassian, ect... counters also along with a play back feature of ecspecial "High Priority" scans so you can analyze it yourself. I personally think the more detailed the better. P.S. sorry if thats off topic of this wishlist.

Oh, I meant High priority as large spikes ect.., sorry about that. But Thanks for the radio Idea. I doubt I will be able to get anywhere near the resolution of the SETI dishes :(, but it would be cool to listen to. I watched a show a while ago where a guy made his own mini seti feild with relatively low budget. (in relation to SETI budget). It looked like a pretty cool hobby. Do you think If someone were to set up there own small dish field they could upload relevant data to SETI. Thanks for te info.

I watched a show a while ago where a guy made his own mini seti feild with relatively low budget. (in relation to SETI budget).

If you saw the SETI budget, the guy probably had a larger budget than SETI! Sad thing is, that's hardly a joke.

I was wondering about something. On the SETI graphics frequency goes along the X axis and time across goes across he Z axis. Now I know that this is probably the simplist way to view the data but why are we looking across the frequncy band and not the time band. If an Intelligent Signal is sent out on a frequncy wouldn't it build up across the time axis on one particular frequency. If this is true the current view makes it extremely difficult to pick out waves or patterns in a frequncy.

There should be like a little moving tab on the X axis that brings up a view of time(x axis)-power(y axis) in one of the corners of that particular frequency view. I think maybe that is what the left hand graph is but it doesn't show the frequency you want to monitor it just kinda throws them out there.

Also there should be markers on the 3D graph, like opposite colored wire frame boxes(relative to your graphics colors chosen)around the area of interest.

Just some thoughts.
