Constellation - Team Canada

I joined this project the other day, but I could not find our team. Pawly suggested I create one, you know, take advantage of the situation and tag my name to a potentially high profile project. :-D

I'm in! 10 WU downloaded, first one currently 65% done. Anyone have any comments on how credits/hour compare to other projects?

I've been running it for a couple of days on a trio of Core 2 duos - seems to take approximately 4.5 hrs per unit and only giving about 100 credits per work unit - not the best but there are requests on their forum to adjust this.
Backing off for the present on the project until I can satisfy myself about the work/reward ratio.

This is weird. On checking my accounts page & clicking on team, it comes up with Canada but I'm not on the list. Checked via My Account page & find that I'm attached to my Co team(quit & reattached to Canada team). This I did not do & on checking via FreeDC, find that I'm still a member & it shows that I did not leave.

Boinc messing up?
