Have done some DC in the past, but had often found them to be somewhat unethical in that they had ties to private companies or that you couldn't find out how much management was paid. Sometimes it just plain appeared we were working for them for free and not doing much good. I know for some they don't care about any of these things and thats fine, for them. But when I donate, I want to know the whole story. WCG and FAD had financial ties that were at best very suspect so they are off the list. FAH seemed more like a free service for Stanford with little results for the amount CPU time they got, yet I did a lot of work for them before I gave up on it. Would really like to see some in-depth coverage like a 20/20, 60 minutes or the like to spotlight the good DC projects and weed out the bad. Too much potential for abuse here.
Not looking for an argument on the subject as the facts are readily available to those who dig deep about some of the projects , just want ideas and any input from others who also screened their project to make sure their donation of lots of CPU time was being used for a good purpose. I think thats a fair request.
