I saw this was recently added to the BOINC projects list, but it looks like nothing has been done with this project. Are there any plans or was this abandoned? |

I just added the project as well, and for the same reason. The idea for the project is not new, it has "been around" for a year or more, don't recall exactly. Perhaps it is a back burner job. The project popping up on the projects list may be an indication of some progress I suppose. |

I can't say BOINC Central (BC) is dead. It seems never to have been alive. Looks pretty much like a 'boilerplate' placeholder. I've suspended BC, and turned of Fetching new tasks. In a few months of 'No Activity'. I'll likely remove myself, and remove any 'clutter' on my machine. :( |

It is not doing any harm for me sitting in my project list doing nothing. I would say, though, doing nothing is something it does very competantly... |

How to delete an existing Account? |

If I recall correctly, you can't delete an account once created as it would mess up some of the accounting around any assigned tasks. |

Have any science project signed up for BOINC Central? |

We are approaching the end of the projects second year of "operation", still nothing. |

Did they delete the years prior because I was proud of the universe at home work from years prior. I must have been mistaken for someone who vanished . |

This project, (BOINC Central), has never issued any work, so there would have been no work to delete from here. Universe@Home is "still running" in quotes because it is not issuing work at the moment, Krzysztof, the leader over there, sadly died, you can read more about it here.https://universeathome.pl/universe/ The latest is that the project is to be taken over by Prof. Tomasz Bulik. Hope that helps. |

The universe@home website appears to have been completely blanked, but still there at least. Perhaps something is happening behind the scenes. |

The website at Universe is working again. |
