Edit to remove cosmology. Admin has been AWOL for years, and significant efforts have been made to contact him. The university says the guy who ran the project no longer works there.

I believe, this was already changed but not just pushed to the repo.
@davidpanderson, could you please check and update if needed? Thank you in advance.

I'm trying to contact Marius to see if the project is still doing science.
Its server is fully operational.

If you are able to contact him and he says the project is still worth crunching, it might be worth considering removing the university endorsement info from the project list. The project is no longer hosted or sponsored by the university, at least according to the person Jim (Gridcoin) talked to.

As far as I can tell, Marius is currently a postdoc in the Physics dept at UC Berkeley:
https://physics.berkeley.edu/person-type/post-doc?sort_order=ASC&sort_by=field_openberkeley_person_sortnm_value&page=4

The Cosmology@home site lists institutions where he worked in the past.
I don't have a problem with this
(e.g. the BOINC site still shows the NSF logo even though they're not currently funding us).

Were you able to get in touch with him?

I emailed him on 16 July and haven't gotten a reply.
I'll try his UCB email address.
If no reply we'll de-list the project.

Email to his UCB address bounced; I'll unlist the project.
