Am 24.09.2009 ist die Version 6.6.38 der BOINC-Software für Windows (98/ME/2000/XP/2003/Vista) als neuestes stable-Release veröffentlicht worden. Die letzte offizielle Version war 6.6.36. Bereits am 21.09.2009 wurde das stable-Release 6.6.40 für Linux veröffentlicht. Alle seither vorgenommenen Änderungen sind im angehängten Changelog beschrieben. Für die Linux-Version 6.6.40 steht leider kein Changelog zur Verfügung.

Changelog:
  • 6.6.38
    * Not used by the client software (zip)
    * GUI RPC: add get_message_seqno() RPC. fixes #931
    * client: error if a <file_info> in app_info.xml has any URLs
    * client: don't write file_infos with no URLs to client_state.xml for anon platform project; they must be from app_info.xml
    * client: restored code for project-wide backoff on file uploads and downloads. I originally added this on 30 Sept 2005 and disabled it 2 weeks later because there were reports of problems. However, we need this functionality (e.g. on GPU hosts with hundreds of files to upload, we need to back off after a few failures, not try all of them). I added messages (<file_xfer_debug>) so you can see what's going on. Fixes #932.
    * client: if malloc fails in MFILE writes, exit. We don't check the return values of printf() anywhere, and it's dangerous for the client to continue if it thinks something got written that didn't. Fixes #281
    * client: code cleanup for project-level file xfer backoff
    * client/manager/GUI RPC: show project-level backoffs
    * client: changed file upload logic
    * client: if file < 8KB, upload it in its entirety and skip size check
    * client: (refinement to previous checkin) don't skip file size check if file has multiple upload URLs. We might have uploaded different amounts on different servers.
    * client: change the way a resource's "estimated delay" (passed to server for crude deadline check) is computed.
    * Quick Updates
    * lib: gcc 4.4 fix; fixes #854

    6.6.37
    * client: include device number in message describing NVIDIA GPU, and call it "NVIDIA GPU" rather than "CUDA device". fixes #879
    * client: tweak messages
    * client: Fix missing argument in printf statements.
    * fix to the above
    * client: prepend rather than append to LD_LIBRARY_PATH; on Mac, change DYLIB_LIBRARY_PATH also.
    * MGR: Fix a long standing bug where the project list control for the account manager info page and the project info page was not consuming available screen space. Previously we hacked around it by setting an explicit size.

    Note: this works on Windows, I don't yet know about Mac and Linux.

    * MGR: Fix fatal error which caused crash in Account Manager Wizard.
    * client: when suspending a GPU job, always remove it from memory, even if it hasn't checkpointed. Otherwise we'll typically run another GPU job right away, and it will bomb out or revert to CPU mode because it can't allocate video RAM
    * MGR: Remove project list randomization, sort on name.
    * MGR: Previous sorting method wasn't working, use a sort function pointer instead.
    * client: record the time results are received. Process non-EDF GPU jobs in this order.
    * MGR: use branded Manager name in async RPC Please Wait dialog.
    * Mac: Update copyright date in InfoPlist.strings files to 2009.
    * Mac MGR: strip /n from command field of PROCINFO struct so <exclusive_app> log flag works properly on Mac.
    * MGR: Change CBOINCClientManager::KillClient() to get client pid from procinfo_setup() on all non-Windows platforms.
    * Mac Sandbox: check_security() writes path of bad file to stderr for some error codes.
    * Mac MGR: fix compile break.
    * MGR: Compile fix.
    * Mac Installer: Delete any old PTP branded versions.
    * MGR: Fix Mac compile error in addition of DYLIB_LIBRARY_PATH.

Ich zitiere mich mal selber:

...als neuestes stable-Release...

Ich weiß, daß es die Version schon länger gibt, aber halt als unstable markiert, genauso wie die ganzen 6.10.x. Schau mal hier -> http://boinc.berkeley.edu/download_all.php.

Ich poste eigentlich nur News zu offiziellen/stable Releases, da es mir dabei auch etwas um Qualität geht. ;)

Die Linux Version bau ich gleich noch mit ein, hatte nicht gesehen, daß die auch erst kürzlich veröffentlicht wurde.
