WCG team position
Forum rules
Welcome to The Scottish Boinc Team boards. See forum rules in pinned post. If you can't be bothered then try not to be too naughty as I have a delete button to press and a ban hammer to swing.

#91 Re: WCG team position
WCG is unique in BOINC as it's not a typical BOINC project. WCG is run by IBM and obviously IBM are taking GDPR very seriously. The other big projects connected to universities etc. that could be targeted are also taking it serious ie. Einstein, Climate etc.
At the moment it may be necessary that we will have to consent on every single project to allow your stats to be exported, your team details, country etc. Trying to follow what changes will be made to BOINC manager front end and backend server code. I think a lot of projects will be waiting for the new version of BOINC server code before they implement any changes.
It's also highly likely that stat sites like FreeDC and BAMstats will have to agree to legal terms with WCG before they can import any stats from WCG and will have to satisfy WCG that they are GDPR compliant with respect to data protection, deleting users accounts on BAM etc if they are requested to be deleted on WCG.
WCG doesn't fully mesh with BOINC and never has, the use of an e mail to log in rather than a user name for example means BAM doesn't work with WCG. AS their system is fully stand alone I wonder how far up the list of things to fix this will be.

#92 Re: WCG team position
Still no sign of WCG joining the fold.
I've got to say that all of this is so unnecessary.
The eugdpr website has this definition:
What constitutes personal data?
The GDPR applies to ‘personal data’ meaning any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified in particular by reference to an identifier. This definition provides for a wide range of personal identifiers to constitute personal data, including name, identification number, location data or online identifier, reflecting changes in technology and the way organisations collect information about people.
No data that WCG, or indeed TSBT, holds about me directly or indirectly identifies me as a person other than my email address which isn't visible on either website & certainly is not exported by WCG. End of problem.
The trying to be more catholic than the Pope metaphor seems very apposite.
I do worry that BOINC has just broken itself by overreacting to this regulation which in reality isn't any more onerous than the old Data Protection Act, which worked because everyone applied a sense of proportion and went with the spirit of the law rather than going for a ridiculously arse-covering worst-case scenario interpretation of the letter of the Act.

#94 Re: WCG team position
As far as I understand it, the issue is not whether you can be identified by the data that is held about you. The issue is that GDPR makes all that data, even including your user name on here, yours. You now have ownership of all data pertaining to you and so you have the right to see what data is held, determine how that data is used and who it is shared with and be completely deleted if you request. You must give consent for a company to hold , share and use data you provide.Megacruncher wrote: ↑Tue Jun 05, 2018 11:21 pm

I'm guessing that WCG is being required by the IBM lawyers to fully comply as if they were IBM. The GDPR rules are typical EU overkill, but until they are applied and some court rulings are made by the first test cases no-one knows how strictly they will be applied.
I guess the future of BOINC will depend on how it is applied in the new account manager. If it makes it a big hassle to run or join a project, join a team or effectively kills the stats sites, then I fear that future will be bleak.
Only time will tell.

#95 Re: WCG team position
The quote is from the official GDPR website & IMHO probably means what it says.
Anyhoo, 14 days into the Cowardly New World, Boincstats singularly fails to note that we are 124th now & more importantly UBT have been overtaken. Hurrah for us! Shame that most of the BOINC community probably will never know what happened on WCG after May 2018.
And my, admittedly pathetic but fairly steady, trickle of Byteballs has ceased over the last fortnight.
Good to know that WCG, or their arse-covering-ambulance-chasing-scumbags want to protect me from the prospect of free money just in case I sue them for letting the world know about the stellar amount of work I have done for them over many years.
Heartwarming also to know that likes of Steve/Merlyn our late/great #1 will soon have his WCG account deleted just because he's dead and no longer in a position to opt-in to being retained. Believe me, he's a guy who'd be pretty damn furious at being dead, but the prospect of having his legacy partially erased by some gutless moron would render him utterly incandescent!

#96 Re: WCG team position
Still no WCG update on BOINCStats.
I suppose it's time to calm down, accept that WCG may have sleepwalked out of the BOINC community, & that this may offer some opportunities.
At a personal level that includes getting many more CPU projects to 1 million. Just watch me!
At the team(s) level it allows TSBT & Anguillan Pirates to pursue Formula BOINC and BOINCStats challenges without fear of harming our WCG prospects.
Time to move on people!

#97 Re: WCG team position
Since it appears no stats will be further exported to BS or Free-DC, I've gone back to SUSA. I have a few days to get to 10 years on all active projects and once that's done, WCG will be getting little of my time. If you use the French Sig site, like mine, you can add future badges individually and I may do bronze only from here on out, but no more multi-year badges unless they start exporting again. Like Mega said, there are a lot of other projects that will benefit going out because of WCG willingness to turn their back on the Boinc Community.

WCG may not be exporting stats for BoincStats or FreeDC to pick up but they are still reporting team statistics on their website, which I assume are accurate. It's in WCG Points, not Boinc Credits but the team positions should still be accurate. Here are the top 125 teams...

#99 Re: WCG team position
123rd for WCG is Good!
Bad is that Boincstats & the rest will always have us at 124th https://boincstats.com/en/stats/15/team/list/0/100/0
My inclination is, like Sphynx, to give up on WCG on the basis that they have given up on BOINC.
Obviously, I'm open to other views! Post them please!

#100 Re: WCG team position
I agree Willie. I already made up my mind not to crunch WCG anymore, but am keeping an eye on it hoping to some change in attitude. WCG always wanted to be different from the rest of us. If they don't need my help, than that is fine. It is either BOINC or nothing . Apart from that the cost of Electricity to run my machines is becoming questionable, is it worth it. One less Project to worry about might help.

#101 Re: WCG team position
For the first time in months BoincStats just updated WCG!
Hurrah!
Whatever I said the departure of WCG would never have killed BOINC but it would have been a serious amputation.
But everything is alright now!
And TSBT are 122nd! Now!
Quest back on!

So is all forgiven with WCG ?

Well. that didn't last long, now only running one box. Last night my Safety and Power Switches tripped. It can't be overload as whilst we are asleep only the fridges and the boxes are running. This is the second time this happened. It tripped the Safety switch alone two days ago, also at night. I am baffled. I hate intermittent faults. I'll check the Power Supplies but I think I am wasting time. In the mean time I am running the boxes one at a time.Cruncher Pete TSBT wrote: ↑Wed Aug 01, 2018 11:10 amI'm putting 7 boxes on it, I hope that will help.
Keep on crunching and have a nice day...
Pete.

Shame. Still it's the thought that counts and obviously we appreciate any assistance, great or small.
Hope you get to the root of your power problems soon. It might be an overload, if there are a lot of them on the one circuit.

Well Biblepay us about to pass us to take 121st
On the bright side, just 10 more years to go on Zika for my 2nd 50 year badge!

Biblepay have moved past & beyond. We need worry about them no more - presumably a case of Gridcoin bothers God?
Whatever we are now 122nd!
we shall have 121st back by the end of the month. At this rate 100th should be ours by spring 2019!

Will help as much as I can 

I think this is fool-proof but could you just try it for me please? • There are 10 types of people in the world; those who understand binary, and those who don’t

#116 Re: WCG team position
Where do I see that ranking please? I am only seeing "Points Generated (Rank) 1,321,736,423 (#123)" on my https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/ms/v ... berPage.do page (#127 on runtime, #103 on results returned)
I'm averaging about 125K points per day at the moment with my available hardware but have self-justified purchase of a 22-core Xeon to build a new system so that should help a bit.
Does WCG have work for GPUs as well? I am uncertain whether mine are being used

You look at the BoincStats team rankings for WCG here...https://boincstats.com/en/stats/15/team/list/0/100/0
Or Free-DC WCG team stats here (you will need to go to the next 100 teams)...https://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?pag ... &proj=bwcg
WCG does not currently have any GPU projects.
What is your WCG username? I don't see any new TSBT members on WCG.
BTW, WCG points and Boinc points used for the BoincStats team ranks are not equal. Boinc points are roughly 1/7 of the points the WCG project awards users. So your 125k WCG points per day will show as around 17.8k Boinc points per day on BoincStats and Free-DC stats
