As far as I am concerned, it works pretty fine - what you think guys, how about making this version the new recommended version? Any major flaws known yet? Ah yes, my specs: Athlon Phenom II 945 @ 3,0 GHz 2 GB RAM WinXP SP3 Greetings ID: 50593 ·

That there were no other test clients out for so long, was because of the need to mature the BOINC for Android client a lot more, while on the other hand the main build system of the build developer had broken down, so he couldn't build a new BOINC even if he had wanted to.

Thanks for the info, I didn't know that. I'll give that build a try. Any I want to use this opportunity to give my thanks to all developers + the whole BOINC team incl. the web-admins like you for their efforts, too! Needs to be said sometimes. ID: 50602 ·

Rom Walton wrote: Howdy Folks, As of right now the 7.2 release process is on hold until I can get my new computer setup and running. My old computer died a couple of weeks ago. Installshield only allows you to forcefully (without using the uninstaller) reclaim a per node license once a year. I figure it is best to just wait for the new machine than risk that the uninstaller on my notebook properly frees up the license. If I get lucky in setting up the new computer I can restore from a backup and I'll be back in business within a day or two. If I'm unlucky it'll take a week before I'm ready to go. 7.2.16 was an experiment which I'm going to delete off the BOINC server. If you already have it installed that is fine. The only bugs I'll be able to potentially address are going to be ones that occur after installation. ----- Rom ID: 50604 ·
