After working on the project for more than one and a half year, Andre is leaving the project next week, May 4. He will still work with us to make sure that the forum and the news will be up-to-date but will no longer work full time on the system . We will miss Andre a lot; he has been a valuable collaborator for all of us. Good luck Andre... hope to see you once and a while... ;-) ____________

Gosh, this sounds like I have passed away or something :-) And of course I haven't! I'll still be around on the project, just not in an 'official' manner anymore, but more like a volunteer like everybody else. But thanks for the kind words Conan, I really appreciate that. I from my side like to thank all of our volunteers (most I know by name or avatar by now :-) for all their patience, testing and suggestions. Without that we wouldn't be were we are now. We still got a ways to go to get to the next beta phase though, which as it seems now will probably be in Delaware.

PS For those of you that don't know, I happen to be married to Michela, so don't worry that you won't see me anymore; she will force me to do some work for the project in my spare time ;-) LOL... sure she will... ;-) ____________

Of course! That's why they hire Michela: to get free world-wide advertisement of their university. Hords of new students will apply to them just because they have heard of the university from their favorite boinc project. That's a no-brainer isn't it?

They will succeed about the advertissement. Because i didn't know this university (same for the University of Texas), -> google (or any search engine) is your friend ;) |

I agree that's it's too bad you're moving to the East coast, but I bet it'll be nice to see some trees!

Let us know where that island and beach is and we'll fly by. Do you happen to have a runway in your backyard ;-)

Do you happen to have a runway in your backyard ;-) Slap on some pontoons and, land in the sound, its a big target and easier to hit than a runway ;) Actually there is a runway or two nearby. Manteo Airport on Roanoke Island and there is a smaller field located just behind the Wright Brothers monument. Ever hear of a place called Kill Devil Hills, but there is only one hill or Kitty-Hawk, Nags Head, Cape Hatteras, etc, etc. Its all close by. Its all barrier islands located in the farthest eastern part of North Carolina. |
