OK guys I have a proposal to make. I think it'd be a cool idea to start a AO distributed computing team. I was thinking of doing distributed.net. for 3 reasons:
1. They work on cracking encryption algorythms, which helps test the practical strength of various encryption schemes.
2. They donate money to one of several charities of the winner's choosing, usually these are opensource organizations.
3. Their client is available for many common platforms.

If y'all want to do it let me know. If I get enough feedback I'd be happy to set it up and help you get started....
Cheers
