I have noticed that some people are trying to get foundership of teams that are inactive or the founder is inactive on some of the big projects. Then they rename the team and take the points for their own team. As founders, make sure you watch your email incase someone tries to initiate transfer and block this attempt.

Here are some links to other forums on this topic:

http://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/forum ... hp?id=4238
http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=2860

I may initiate transfer on some or all your teams in the near future just so nobody else can do it for 2 months. Please do not be offended if I do, I am only trying to protect the team.

I read a few posts in the thread at Rosetta yesterday. Thanks for the thread here Grizz.
Please hit the transfer at Rosetta ASAP as I'll be going on vacation soon.

Thanks,
BB
