Very well ... :)

I have it up and running on one of the windows machines. You then tell the clients that they should respond to queries from a remote RPC and then the machines get polled and the data window on BOINC View gets updated with the changes.

Some of the GUI is a litlle "rough" around the edges ... but it seems to work pretty well ...
