No, while Astropulse was the application being used during the initial BOINC "beta"-testing, after SETI@home was added to the testing, the graduate-student that should do the coding and so on for Astropulse left, deciding he was more interested in other things. This was sometime in late 2003.
Until got another graduate-student, Astropulse wasn't being developed. Don't remember if it was in 2007 development of Astropulse finally started-up again, with 1st. some months of setting-into the code, and fixing various bugs, until beta-testing started up again.
Astropulse wasn't released before July 2008.
