WCG thinks that it's not worth doing until they have research projects that want that capability. They have a problem with the cart-horse causality nexus I think.

I think GPU grid is your only bet if you want to keep it withing WCG grounds.

no one on tpu is a part of it but i created a team around the time i created the tpu wcg team.

I didn't know that. you should have said more about it and i'm sure more people would have joined it also :slap:

i like the idea of the folders using there GPUs and crunchers using there CPUs it gets work done for both teams and causes.
