March 17, 2005
In preparation for shutting down SETI@home Classic (in about 1 month, hopefully) we're trying to make sure that SETI@home Classic accounts are linked to the proper SETI@home/BOINC account. This is a bit complicated because of email address changes. See our current transition plan.

为关闭传统的S@H做准备（预期在大约一个月后），我们正努力将旧S@H中的账号正确关联到SETI@Boinc中的账号。考虑到用户的email可能有变更，这个过程稍有点复杂。点击链接察看我们的过渡计划。

过渡计划：

SETI@home is switching to BOINC, a platform for distributed computing. There are now two separate projects:

SETI@home Classic (the original)
SETI@home/BOINC (the new one)

These projects are doing the same scientific work, though SETI@home/BOINC will evolve to do new science.

Each project has its own account database. Some BOINC accounts are linked to a Classic account, and show the work done (results, CPU hours) by that Classic account.

NOTE: your Classic account will be linked to your BOINC account only if your Classic account has a valid email address (i.e. one where you can receive email) before the final cutover date (see below).

The plan for the transition is as follows:

14 May 2004

We made a 'snapshot' of Classic user information (accounts, teams, profiles) and used it to initialize the SETI@home/BOINC database. A BOINC account must be 'validated' (by responding to an email sent to the account's email address) before it can be used. The BOINC accounts created at this time remain linked to the Classic account, even if the email address of either account is changed.

22 June 2004

We made SETI@home/BOINC available for general use.

16 March 2005

We updated the BOINC database with current information from Classic. Classic accounts created since 14 May 2004 were linked to the BOINC account having the same email address, if it existed; otherwise a new BOINC account was created with that email address (see technical details below).
To be announced

Account creation is disabled on Classic.

To be announced

We stop creating workunits for Classic.

To be announced (1 April 2005 or later)

We turn off the data server for Classic. Classic will no longer send workunits or accept results. Functions to update account information are disabled. We update the BOINC account database with current information from SETI@home Classic one final time. At this point the Classic statistics are frozen (though we may continue to eliminate 'cheaters').

IGNITION

！！！！！！！！

首先是停止classic上的帐号注册，然后停止为其产生新的wu，然后就停止运行了...

貌似这一回是真地要关闭了

准备在boinc平台上继续跑seti的都注意一下两边的email一定要一样的
这样才会将classic上的统计信息(完成数,总计算时间)更新过去

当然，还没在boinc注册的，就直接activate一下就可以了:)

Technical details

Account records in the Classic database include name, email address, URL, etc.; they also have an integer ID.

Account records in the BOINC database have the above fields, plus fields 'seti_id', 'seti_nresults', and 'seti_total_cpu'. If this account is linked to a Classic account, these fields contain the ID and work totals of that account.

The database update of March 16 2005 worked as follows.

    for each Classic account X
        if there is a BOINC account Y linked to X
            if Y is validated
                update Y.seti_nresults and Y.seti_total_cpu
            else if there is a BOINC account Z with Z.email = X.email
                link Z to X
        else
            if there is a BOINC account Z with Z.email = X.email
                link Z to X
            else
                create a new BOINC account with email = X.email,
                and link it to X

晕............我才刚过250就出这消息...

老SONG回来知道这消息还会继续算不？？？？？

msblast

500的证书啊

烦人

这次好像是来真的了...

boinc平台上WINDOWS的版本是命令行版本还是图形的?
可不可以一次下载一批WU慢慢算?
要是是命令行和可以下载一批WU的就打算迁移过去...

靠。先冲到1K再说。去看看BOINC上的软件怎样的。

Youth

是gui的，不过对计算没有影响，只是一个简单的管理界面
当然如果想看花哨东东的话也可以

可以设置连接网络的间隔时间
如果时间长，软件就会储备多一些wu了

不过不好的就是可以定制的东西太少了，不如setihide之类的好用

如果偶现在换成BONIC的以前计算的WU还在不？EMAIL一样。

Youth

只是有个地方可以看你以前算了多少

因为两边的credit计算方法不一样
所以新旧平台上的数据不能统一

算了。还是早点换过去好。要不然到时候全球一起换挤S。
