Okay, then here's the silver lining - per DC Vault rules, once a project like this goes dead, won't they look into removing and replacing it? If they do, everyone with points in it will lose those, and we'll move up by default...
proteins@Home - dead now for months
SIMAP - new work every few months, only lasts a week or two
Malariacontrol - no work, needs invitation
meanwhile a project like GPUGRID with regular work and a responsive staff can't even get a sniff of the vault because it's too "immature," or "whaaaa I have to buy a GPU to play." That's why the Vault is ours to take, the other teams just aren't [H]ard enough.
