Is the admin interested in getting Rakesearch onto Gridcoin?

If Gridcoin adds the project into whitelist it will be good for computing. But I not sure that all requirements can be performed.

I'm sorry to hear that, what can we do to help you guys meet them? We are losing Boinc Projects, and Gridcoin Projects as well, and it would be nice if we could add some back in again.

I thought all that's required is you have a steady flow of work (I believe the requirement is credits awarded every day for the past 40 days, and Boincstats shows you're achieving this). They also don't let you in if there is a possibility of cheating and earning gridcoins you're not entitled to, which I think means you have to have something unusual in the credits system like LHC, which I think gives you points per CPU time rather than work done. People were fiddling it by making their machines look like they had more cores than they had. But AFAIK your project just awards per task completed, which should be fine. Then you need someone with at least 100K gridcoins to start a poll, and provided most people vote yes (I see no reason they wouldn't), you're in. Mikey has 100K coins.

If Windows-only application and stable flow of work is enough, why not? :)

As per https://gridcoin.us/wiki/whitelist-process.html#information-for-project-admins

"The first step is making sure you as the admin of the project want to be whitelisted. If you, somewhere public you should say that you were interested and a date when they would want this to happen (anywhere that someone could check such as project forums, Reddit, etc). Following this, find someone to make a poll for you on Gridcoin. Lastly if the community votes votes “yes”, then you get whitelisted."

So this is somewhere public I guess. State when you would like it to happen. I'm guessing as soon as possible?

Then Mikey, could you start a poll since you have the coins?

Collatz gave a fixed number of credits for each task that was completed so not "per cpu time" and WAS a part of the GC network before it folded.
