Maybe recruit volunteers to help with the new website? Just post in the "news" section that you're looking for a volunteer web designer, I'm sure you'd get more than one person willing to help out... I could help with the translation for instance.

You're right - we have hit a delay on our end. We had envisioned the website refresh coinciding with the server upgrade, but the server stuff keeps getting pushed back and back and...

So. In the mean time. We will be looking for web development help internally. Thanks for staying on us!

I think volunteers are NOT welcome in the Rosetta@home's staff.
You can see the "optimization situation" with Rsj5's suggestions completely ignored.

I think a volunteer to help with a website or translations is entirely different from a volunteer to have access to all of the source code.

Need i say more??

P.S. David gave access to source code to Rsj5. Rsj5 saw some change (optimizations) to do and he refered to developers.

Having internal resources, and the preference to use them really doesn't strike me as a rejection of volunteer help.

Having internal resources, and the preference to use them really doesn't strike me as a rejection of volunteer help.

- December 2015, Rjs5: "Any performance improvement will only make progress when someone on the Rosetta team wants to. I have a couple unanswered messages to developers volunteering time and expertise. If anyone has interested contacts, please pass me along to them"

- Again Decembre 2015, Rjs5: "I have absolutely no problem with Rosetta developers passing on performance changes. Rosetta will certainly benefit in the future from CPU core count and frequency improvements."

- Or this post about 2 rosetta dev

- And, again, Rjs5 December 2016: " David was supportive and interested but the "developers" were "skeptical" (even somewhat "hostile") about my performance expectations. Without their interest, there will not even be the simple changes".

I am a Rosetta developer who looked at the issue Rjs5 pointed out which was using ICC rather than gcc. I also found a large speed improvement. As such we started transitioning over to using icc in compiling. Subsequently code was checked into Rosetta by another group that stopped the icc compile from working on our cluster. I'm sure we'll fix the problem & get icc into production shortly.

One thing to consider is that Rosetta developers are primarily focused on developing algorithms to design novel proteins to cure diseases or do novel things. Our second priority is to make the code better & faster for general purpose applications that are seen on R@H. Lot's of effort goes into making the code better but it may take time to integrate the code & push it out to the R@H client. We definitely appreciate any help that's been given.

I am a Rosetta developer who looked.....

First all, thank you VERY much for your feedback and considerations
Second, bye bye Amd cpu :-(

News? Roadmap to this transition??

I am writing to let you all know that major updates are coming to the Rosetta@home website soon.

Soon means?

i think means: "not during this decade"

It's coming along. We plan to release it sometime this month.

GREAT!!!!!
Only one thing: please, follow the suggestions of our volunteers (aka, no drupal, for example)
