[GLeeM]

There is a new project where we need a TeAm Anandtech to join.

I can't even remember what TAC stands for now :$

 

[petrusbroder]

Team Anandtech Committee - the entity which creates the teams in different projects and does so in a consistent way ... with nice passwords, admins etc.

Hmm I should probably know that seeing as I'm an admin for the SETI team! lol

So whose on the TAC?

 

[Fardringle]

I'm not sure who is part of the TAC now, but there is a team already set up for BEAL@home.

Just to repeat the stuff about TAC:
1. TAC = TeAm AnandTech Committee has three members
2. These members are just now Ken_g6, petrusbroder and Philippart
3. Job description:

• To create a TeAm AnandTech in each new DC-project
• To maintain - if needed - those teams
• To try to transfer the team foundership in those projects, where the founder (or captain) is no longer reachable to the TAC [there is a process for that in BOINC.]
• To keep the DC-forum readers up-to-date with important or fun or necessary or interesting news [a.k.a TAC notes]
• To be some kind of gentle guide or what ever you want to call it for the team - with the principle of "the less needs to be done the better" [there has not been any need for this for ages ...]

4. If a TAC member becomes a mod or admin in the DC-forum he usually resigns from the TAC - to avoid to have dual roles and/or conflict of interest.

To add to petrusbroder's fine descripton, there are two emeriti: Smoke and Rudy Toody. Smoke resigned when he became a moderator and Rudy Toody resigned for medical reasons, but he just won't go away!

Since most new projects load the team profiles from BOINC, TAC must only set a password for the TAC user, which is why their motto is, "We do as little as possible."

 

[GLeeM]

Since most new projects load the team profiles from BOINC,

but there is a team already set up for BEAL@home.

I've been looking in the wrong place for if a TeAm is already set up.

Thanks
