I guess the talks of bringing Rosetta@Home to the Xbox 360 is a no go?

I ask because I saw this longggg time ago:

http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/home-entertainment/rosettahome-distributed-folding-coming-to-xbox-360-248072.php

And a quote from the head guy behind Rosetta; "We have been discussing this idea with Microsoft quite a bit over the past several weeks; I will keep everybody posted."
