Not even a day back and I'm already breaking things.

I've notified the project owner about the missing project description and somebody to fix the link from the web-page. (They decided to relocate a lot of server-based webpage resources and in the process broke a lot of internal links.)

They should do a sitewide link check. I saw another broken link earlier on the website. I suspect there may be others.

BTW, where are all the FAQs? I remember there being a more comprehensive FAQ. I thought I remembered there was a place you can look up your work but I can't find the 'Answer' that had that info.

Many of the links from fah-web.stanford.edu are being migrated to folding.stanford.edu. I have seen that some have already been redirected, for those that have not try the Search function on the newer folding.stanford.edu site.

You've been away a long time.

There was once a way to look up individual units that you've worked on but large numbers of people wanted to regenerate large portions of the database and supporting all that re-re-rechecking of detailed information required some pretty powerful database servers. That function was eliminted in favor of presenting just the current totals of points and WUs. If you want to maintain your own database of what you've worked on, you can extract that information from the logs or use a 3rd party tool such as HFM. The FAH website no longer supports that type of query.

Sorry for the missing descriptions! We just became aware this recently, and have posted the descriptions for projects 8670-8682. Hopefully this solves the problem, but let me know if you see any other errors like this from our projects.

Thanks --VInce

Yes I have. Been just BOINC for quite a whiles. I believe Distributed Folding was the last non-BOINC thing I really ran. Might have done Folding for a whiles, but I don't remember.

It's nothing of great need. I figured out what I was trying to do... I'm just getting used to the interfaces. O.o

So expect some more questions of that nature, possibly followed by a "I figured out what I wanted to do..." later on.
