July 24 2015: Creation of BOINC-wide teams has been disabled because of spammers.
If you want to create a BOINC-wide team,
read the following carefully.
Then email David Anderson,
specifying a team name, email address, and user name.
A 'BOINC-wide team' is one that exists on all BOINC projects,
present and future, with an identical name and founder email address.
This site lets you manage a BOINC-wide team.
The list of BOINC-wide teams is exported daily and
is imported daily by each BOINC project.
Teams and accounts that don't already exist on that project are added.
If the team exists and has the same owner email address,
then its URL, description etc. are updated.
It can take up to 48 hours for these updates to occur.
If a BOINC project is failing to import this team list, please notify them.
Ask them to read
this page
and to update to the latest server software.
Notes:
If you change the email address or team name you use on this site,
you'll need to manually change them on every BOINC project
in order for updates to work.
So pick a name you like, and
an email address that won't go away any time soon.
The email address you use will be publicly visible
in the exported team list.
It's in a munged form so spammers won't directly see it,
but nonetheless it may end up on spam lists.
So consider creatiing a separate email address
(e.g., Gmail, Yahoo!, Hotmail).
for the team-founder account,
rather than your primary email address.
Your password is not copied to other projects.
To access your account on other projects, use the "forgot password?" link.
In case of disputes over team names, whoever created the
team first (on some BOINC project) has rights to it.
Contact David Anderson to resolve such disputes.
Team founders are encouraged to join and participate in the
boinc-team-founders group on Google.
