Hi All,

There are a few projects that I'm not actively participating in, but may wish return to at some time in the future. Are there any drawbacks to detaching from a project if I might want to crunch it again? I guess I'm worried about a split CPID or host (if there is such a thing?). I assume that I would use the same user ID and email address.

TIA for your thoughts/advice.

Cheers,

MarkR

Long as you don't take actions on your active projects that forces chang and long as your current CPID was not set by any of your projects you're wanting to detach from, you should be al right.

Hmmm, that could present a problem...One project I'm considering detaching from may very well be the first one I started crunching. I'll have to see if I can verify that. Thanks!

If you want to detach from some projects now then just do it. If you want to reattach to them later then all you need to do is use the same email address you've used at your other projects. If you change your email address at the projects you stay attached to between detaching and reattaching the other projects then use your new email when you reattach.

Thanks, Dagorath, that's good news. I was hoping it was that easy, but didn't want to take any chances.
