Project news

The climateprediction.net project has been presented on several occasions to the GRID community (Sheffield, London).

The development of new version of Climateprediction.net web site is well underway and today we fully refurbished the News system. The new version of website now features a "News Centre", from where the reader can access specific information about the project related news and announcements, as well as up-to-date information about the experiment and site status.

The refurbished News system is based on Rostra - a technology developed at the Centre for New Media and Knowledge Media Institure, The Open University. Rostra has been successfully deployed in various organisations to support knowledge and information sharing.

In September 2002 the project has undergone a name change from .com to .net. The reason for this is purely because "dot com" websites are associated with profit making organisations, and this would be misleading in the case of our project. It is important that present and future participants know that no organisations gain financially through this experiment. We hope that by changing the name to climateprediction.net we can make this more clear.
