A new core developer should do the following things to get set-up:
- Read through the ["Cytostaff Development"] pages
- Get an account on the CVS server (ssh access) - contact the Ideker Lab
- Ask someone to sign you up for the core mailing list. See: ["How to update the mailing list"]
- Sign up to all Cytoscape Google groups, currently cytoscape-discuss and cytoscape-announce. All Cytoscape core developers are expected to answer questions posted to Cytoscape discuss to share the workload.
- Familiarize yourself with how this wiki works, as we are trying to use it to communicate better during the development process.
Get added to the wiki AdminGroup so you can help manage the wiki and access private pages
Create a new account on the [http://cbio.mskcc.org/cytoscape/bugs/main_page.php bug tracker] for yourself and communicate this to the list so that a bug tracker administrator (currently Ethan or Gary) can assign you to a 'developer' role so that you can edit and assign yourself bugs.
