1) Message boards : BOINC Manager : My Wish List - 2 (Message 16088) Posted 26 Mar 2008 by pe Post: hi there, first my apologies, but I did not read the whole thread, so if my wishes have already been posted feel free to delete this post. 1) vacation manager: I'd like to tell BOINC that my computer will be off during a certain time span. e.g. ~7 days from 2008-01-01 12:00 till 2008-01-08 06:00. the BOINC manager should then try to: - finish work due till the end of that time span (+ to completion time) - report all results finished before the start of that time span - and download only new work which deadline lies past the end of that time span (considering the time to completion), or can be finished easily prior the start of that time span. current workaround would be to pause projects with short deadlines, which confuses the resource share. also there are projects with varying deadlines. so I do think this would be a really useful feature. 2) the BOINC manager should remember its size and screen position after reboot. it lost that feature a time ago, but I do not remember the first version this did not work anymore. thank you very much and keep up the good work! best regards, pe.
