Bug#281890: ITP: boinc -- Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing

[Steffen Moeller <moeller@pzr.uni-rostock.de>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist


* Package name    : boinc
  Version         : 4.13
* URL             : http://boinc.berkeley.edu
* License         : BSD
  Description     : Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing

BOINC is the successor architecture for SETI@Home, a community for distributed computing.
BOINC is open for multiple projects besides SETI and is organising the
credits for contributions etc.

I got a first package at
http://bioinformatics.pzr.uni-rostock.de/~moeller/debian/boinc
for both the boinc client and the SETI core.

As I am not a DD (while in the queue for a while) I am seeking a sponsor
and other individuals to test this package on their architectures. Maybe
somebody feels like adding the other cores?

I am running SETI on MIPS and Sparc64.
