Hi folks,

A Newbie here and feel like a fish out of water, can someone explain to me what I am meant to do, What am I looking for? what do I need to do?

I'll leave the Questions for now, this is very different from Seti....
Any help would be great... Thanks

Regards Stargate

well this is a much difrent project then seti.. im not sure if i am the best person to explain it but since no one else has i get first shot at it

(not related to the project team or development just a fellow user)

This project is working at tring to get the Rosetta code protene folding to a more optimised and therefore alowing other programs as well as itself to find more valiable data and hopefully find a cure for diseases quicker

this project has ZERO redundancy (each work unit is processed by only 1 person) this allows maximum productivity with less users. (yes i am sure if something looks good that they do an in house test on it to determin if its a good hit or not)

Hope you enjoy it here and hope more people wander by.. (also hope someone else can explain it better than i can)
