Carlos,


Thanks for you interest in participating in the
quality control process.


This is very easy to do, and everybody is
welcome to contribute to the Dashboard.


You don't need any particular authorization for
doing this. Simply some coffee and persistance.


Here is what you need to do:


1) Run CMake for configuring ITK.

    - Enable BUILD_TESTING
    - Enable BUILD_EXAMPLES
    - Select "Advanced"
      and make sure that there are not "NOTFOUND"
      entries for things like:

      cvs, ftp, scp, tcl, gzip, gunzip

      On the Mac that shouldn't be a problem,
      since it is basically a Unix system.

    - Select a name for your SITE
      this name is the one that will appear
      in the dashboard.
      (e.g. like "terminus.kitware")
      Please try to select something that
      matches the current entries on the
      Dashboard.  I would suggest something
      like:   "mymachine.mcgill"



2) Rebuild ITK



3) Test manually that from the top binary
    directory of ITK you can do:


      make Experimental
      make ExperimentalSubmit


    The Build should appear in the Dahsboard
    in the nex hour following your submission.



4) Test that you can manually do:


       make Nightly
       make NightlySubmit


    Again, your build should show up in the
    next hour on the online Dashboard.



5)  Setup a cron job in order to run the
     same commands every day just after
     1:00 am. Eastern time.




A group at SINTEF in Norway has been very helpful
already in gaining support for the G5. You may want
to join forces with them and help us in the
debugging process.



Please let us know if you have any questions,



   Thanks



     Luis
