Because of the open source nature of Boinc everyone (who has the programming skills) could fork the actual version of Boinc, write a "GRC version" and publish it beside the original version.
Similar to e.g. all the alternate viewers for "Second Life" where you have the original version from Linden Labs and a lot of alternate versions with different/more/other functions.
