The project is wanting us, at our convenience, to detach and reload under the new URL. If you just hit the button, you'll lose your current WU, so you might want to wait until it finishes one, go to the Project page of the BOINC Manager and do an Update to be sure you get credit for that last WU.

When I Detached from the project, it did that but the BOINC manager hung up and had to be manually killed. Whoops! :looney:

Anyway, to reattach, enter the project URL as

http://www.cosmologyathome.org/

enter your email and password & away you go. :thumbs:

There's a note to this effect on the Cosmos home page http://cosmos.astro.uiuc.edu/cosmohome/

Not very convenient for big farmers. Fortunately I've only got a couple of boxes to do.

Thanks for the heads up.

Yeah, but hey, whatcha gonna do? It's such a new project that they're just now getting their sh*t together. After all, registration up to now WAS noted as "beta", so...

Hopefully, this'll be the only bump in the road. And, they're maintaining the old naming as an alias for a while at least. :beep:

And they managed to break their spiffy new web site today as well.
