 Why is the project name ADSL when it is running Symmetric Prime Tuples. ADSL usually means Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line. The project's name is confusing. |

 First, Corporal launched a BOINC test from a developer. Demis then started the SPT project. Yes, of course, the name of the project should be changed. Hope Corporal does it. |

 Would that mean detaching and re-attaching to the project? |

 I think it would require re-attaching since the URL would probably change. This will create a different project directory on the client. |

 Please stop playing with the renaming of the project. (Очень прошу - перестаньте играть с переименованиями проекта.) It's not nice to the volunteers. (Это некрасиво по отношению к волонтерам.) What was wrong with the name of the project "SPT@home"? (Чем вас не устраивало название проекта "SPT@home"?) |

 Please stop playing with the renaming of the project. (Очень прошу - перестаньте играть с переименованиями проекта.) The project is currently called "SPT test project". This is displayed on the main page of the project https://boinc.termit.me/adsl/ The current project name means that the project is in the testing and debugging stage. The final renaming of the project will be later. Sorry if renaming a project is inconvenient for you. |

 The project name in BOINC (in variable project_name) is fine as it is. The last name change wasn't as traumatic as it could have been as they kept the master_url setting the same. I don't see anything in the BOINC variables that need changing except the master_url (because it still has the adsl directory in it) but that would require possibly changing things in the server configuration. It wouldn't be worth making that change and I would leave it the way it is currently set. You can do whatever you want on the main page, that doesn't change the BOINC configuration in any way. |
