What is the usual routine around here? Go ahead and install the new boinc's as available? Any problems spotted with this one?

the new boinc 7.4.27

Here are a couple of problems found with 7.4.27. I use 7.4.26, and ran into the first one myself.

There are supposed to be fixes in the works.

Thanks Jim. Appreciate that. I read the first two and that was enough for me. I'll wait - gladly.

According to an official tester: "The "not properly fetching for a 0-resource-share project" problem has been identified, and the solution has been implemented. It will be ported to 7.4.x, and you can expect another 7.4.x public release in the upcoming weeks."

I'm guessing the other problems have been worked on also.

DA himself is working on the WCG attach issue.

Otherwise, 7.4.26 (almost the same as 7.4.27) is working fine for me on six Win7 64-bit machines.
