Being an early adopter of BOINC, I have seen its origins. As one of the original half-dozen alpha testers, I hope my contributions have helped shape it into a better tool for all those that followed.

Sadly, I find that I no longer have enough time to devote to BOINC's testing and basic development any more. Although, having said that, I feel that the platform has now matured enough to stand on its own.

When I look at BOINC today, I feel like a proud uncle.

I received my invitation to start alpha testing Einstein@home on 08 November 2004 and I've been particpating ever since!

Einstein@home went live on 23 February 2005.
