I have noticed that the Linux 64-bit version of the run manager of BOINC 7.0.18 forces the window autoraise feature (i.e. when I move the mouse over the window, the window is automatically raised). I do not have this feature enabled on my desktop as I find it extremely annoying. I would like to ask you to respect my desktop settings and not force the autoraise feature on me. Thank you!

This is an Alpha test release already superseded by 7.0.20... also an AlPHA DEV.VERSION.

I thought you would be interested in fixing problems, but if you are not, feel free to ignore my reports...

Sekerob is a volunteer just as you and me. While he is correct that 7.0.20 is the latest BOINC development version, and thus that you should try that one first, I doubt that any of your complaints were fixed in that.

I did send your complaints to the developer earlier today. Let's just first see if he wants to do something with it, this can take several days if not weeks, as he does have a lot of other things on his TODO list as well.

And if you think complaints are better made in person, there's always the Alpha email list. This list needs registration.
