With NASA identifying 3, 826 confirmed exoplanets and 2,857 planetary systems to-date, is there a way that SETI@home data can be cross-referenced with those systems and known exoplanets to narrow the search parameters? I'm sure someone has already thought of this, but was wondering if there was any progress or inquiry into this?

Thoughts?

Much of the "BLP" data (tasks starting with "BLC") is from the region of known exo-planets.
