[CompStrm Wiki] Re: where do i get started

[Bill la F. <laf...@ya...>]

Allan,

Good to hear back from you.

Source is kept under subversion at
http://agilewiki.dev.java.net 

To keep up to date on the latest changes, you will
need to join java.net and give me your user name. I'll
initially set it up to give you read access--write
access comes later, and we may want to keep the number
of developers with write access to a small number.

Are you familiar with subversion? You will find a
great windoz client at http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/

Also, it would be great if you could introduce
yourself. What is your background? Your strengths?
Areas of interest? Anything in particular you would
like to work on in AgileWiki?

We may soon have a team page and I'd like to include
something about everyone there. (Its already included
in the latest release.) Its also a nice way for the
team to get to know each other.

Speaking of the team, the members already are quite
diverse, including a graphic artist, a research
engineer and an ontologist, programers with 30+ years
of experience, Java newbies and non-programmers.

I look forward to your active involvement and will
help you as I can and when you need it. If you're
looking for something to work on, I would suggest data
compression of the strings passed between the server
and its clients--this is really an easy project once
you're moving in the right direction, as there are
libraries available that will do the heavy lifting.
(Programming these days often is little more than
using the right library in the right place.)

Or would you prefer to dig into the internals of a
change-based database? Work on Serlets? Or Swing? Or
perhaps focus on testing? There's pleanty of work
here! Name your poison. :-)
