Thought I would get back into using BOINC after a little dry spell. My plans are to take some computers in my garage, do a little soldering and build a mini-cluster for BOINC projects.

Couldn't find who to contact about this, so thought I would ask here... Is there a problem with me registering a domain with 'BOINC' in the name? It will not be used for nefarious purposes or to misrepresent anything. I just want to have a site that details my work and results from the cluster.

No problem using "boinc" in domain names.

Thank you. At the moment, plans for the site are a bit nebulous. Work, house-sitting for a friend, moving and getting my daughter off to college seems to be eating up the majority of my time right now.

Once the site is up, I will let you know.
