    I've been using BOINC on Fedora 9 Linux for some time. Now, I see there's a new version, for Fedora 7 and 8. I have two questions: first, is there any reason known that it wouldn't be OK on 9 and second, is there any reason to upgrade? I presume that if I do, I'll have to stop the client, upgrade and restart it. If not, then what?

      I am still using BOINC 5.10.45 since version 6,x,y seems still to have problems on some of the 6 BOINC projects I am running on SuSE Linux 10.3.
