I like to understand the projects I crunch for so here's a question.

How many work units does Rosetta have before the next big project starts? Einstein give a number of work units, like in its current S5 project, and lists them on their server status page/

Does Rosetta have a similar number until the end of a big project? Or do the scientists just create work units as they think of new things to study?

There's no finite number of WUs. And since each user can select their own WU runtime preference, the project is really targetting a number of models using a given approach against a given protein.

It's been suggested before, and worth bringing up again, that they post landmarks in hindsight or targets in advance for the number of models they'd like to crunch for various WUs. Perhaps they could post them in the WU log.
