a better aproach for a longtime project would be using an existing infrastructure such as BOINC (http://boinc.berkeley.edu/) but one would need to work into the API. On the other hand it would be easier on the client side, since there is already an existing client software, which could attract more people. But well, as the chances are very small $:-\$

Correct, and even if BOINC is (rather) easy to set up and maintain, maybe (more evaluation is required) we don't even need to bother with this kind of generic infrastructure.
Using programs such as PRPNet/ECMNet as a starting point might do the job, given that those are already dealing with integers, they have a networking protocol between sockets on the two sides, and they launch external worker programs on the client side

Adaptations will be necessary, of course, because we're not dealing with ECM curves or primality tests. And the latest version of ECMNet might be a better starting point than the latest version of PRPNet, because there's not yet any dependency on a SQL server (just edit text files with a simple syntax on the client and the server - I've done this earlier today for local ECMNet testing on an integer).

Just how many times do I have to say that I don't expect the brute force method to work? I know it won't work. But it is possible to happen, and it's better than doing nothing.

^ this

what sets us apart from TI is that we at least try

I would personally like to apologize to Lionel Debroux for some misunderstanding between posts. I understand that you were frustrated that people were not noticing the earlier work developed by you and Tribal. Unfortunately what I have noticed before that online, the intentions of others can be hard to interpret. I fully agree with you that a C/asm version is required, but I only wanted to defend the work of other members. I apologize that some of my posts were rude, but now I hope that we can continue to work together on this project.
