Writing Papers

Accomodate New Group Members

Rights to access the svn

• Go with the new member to Andrea or Imke for administrative steps (which?) and to get an office key.

• The new member has to create a wiki account on https://wiki.ml.tu-berlin.de/wiki/IDA. The convention for the login is FirstnameLastname, e.g., BenjaminBlankertz.

• Then you have to write an email to Dominik Kühne <dominik.kuehne@tu-berlin.de>:

Dear Dominik,

we have a new member in the BBCI group. Please do the following thing:
 * Give access to the BBCI Wiki. The login is: FILLIN.
 * Give access to all BBCI parts of the SVN.
 * Add the user to the 'bbci' group on the cluster.
 * ??Register the mac address for LAN access in the 7th floor.?? Is this neccessary??

Thank you,
  XYZ

• Then the new member can checkout the following SVNs.

  • https://ml01.zrz.tu-berlin.de/svn/ida/public/bbci

  • https://ml01.zrz.tu-berlin.de/svn/ida/public/bbci_tex

  • https://ml01.zrz.tu-berlin.de/svn/ida/public/texmf

• Under windows this can be done with TortoiseSVN. In Linux it works as follows:

  mkdir ~/svn
  cd ~/svn
  svn checkout --username UserName https://ml01.zrz.tu-berlin.de/svn/ida/public/bbci bbci

• In Linux: put a symbol link to the texmf directory in the home (assuming ~/svn/texmf is the path to the texmf directory):

cd
ls -s svn/texmf .

• Give the new member the password of the springfield and the guest WLAN.
• Give the new member the web address of the BBCI wiki.
• Instruct how to use the coffee machine (+ payment).
