Bit of a late read. Thanks for keeping the project alive despite the difficulties!
Can't CERN help bring public attention to the whole project? People are going crazy over LHC lately and James Webb.

The big, well-funded projects of course rely heavily on BOINC (LHC and Einstein@home, perhaps others, and in the future maybe Blackholes@home). These are important projects that have years of life to them. At this point, saying running "in perpetuity" seems reasonable!

In short, BOINC has made many important contributions, gotten people like me involved for a very long time in the discovery process, and will continue to do so in the future!
