<h2>Getting source code</h2>
<p>
At any given point there are two different versions
of the BOINC source code (maintained as separate CVS projects):
<ul>
<li> <b>boinc</b> is the development version.
It may be unstable, and it may not be compatible with public BOINC projects.
<li> <b>boinc_public</b> is the stable version.
It generally is the version being used
(on both client and server) by public BOINC projects.
</ul>
You can get the BOINC source code in several ways:
<ul>
<li>
<a href=source/>Download</a> a tarball or .zip file
(generated nightly).
<li>
Browse the CVS repository via a
<a href=http://boinc.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/>web-based interface</a>.
<li>
Access the CVS repository directly, e.g. with a command like
<pre>
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@alien.ssl.berkeley.edu:/home/cvs/cvsroot checkout boinc
<pre>
</ul>
<p>
Source code for a typical BOINC application,
SETI@home, is <a href=http://boinc.berkeley.edu/seti_source/>here</a>.
<h2>Bug database</h2>
<p>
You can browse the BOINC
<a href=http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/taskbase/database.cgi>bug-tracking database</a>.

and from several BOINC-based projects:

</ul>
