Looks interesting:

I wonder if BOINC will be part of their plans?

I don\'t know anything about Met Office plans.

What is said there seems to fit in with NERC\'s new stratgy:

BOINC isn\'t mentioned in there but I wouldn\'t expect it to be. Plans would be a more appropriate place than strategy.

Visit BOINC WIKI for help

And join BOINC Synergy for all the news in one place.

The Met Office stuff runs on supercomputers, and not too many individuals would have one of these.
And BOINC is only just starting to get to grips with 64 bit systems.

For those that are interested, this is the Met Office page for their computers.
