Desire to contribute
Dear Galaxy Project community, I am working with a group of students at College of Charleston of South Carolina. Being interested in bioinformatics and software engineering, we chose to work on Galaxy for our open source class project. We are subscribed to the appropriate mailing list, have been accessing Trello and are becoming familiar with the Galaxy architecture. Our first assignment is to identify and fix a bug, but unfortunately the bugs reported seem to be going right over our heads.Where would be a good place to start, so that we may be able to contribute to your system (documentation, etc)? We are looking forward to your response.

Hi Paul, Fixes or enhancements to individual tools might be a good place to start - and you won't need to know as much about the Galaxy internals. The Galaxy development team look after a lot of tools/wrappers, but of course there are even more on the Tool Shed written and maintained by other groups. Fixing a non-core Galaxy tool may not be quite what your lecturer had in mind, so do check ;) Peter On Wednesday, February 6, 2013, Matthew Paul wrote:

Dear Galaxy Project community,
In risk of getting a discussion here: a long standing enhancement request is to highlight the current history item one is currently viewing. Situation sketch: I often hide the history items panel to study results (displayed in middle panel) into detail, and when I bring the history item panel back, I often have to search which item I was viewing - no clue at all. It really annoys me, but I don't know whether this can be fixed easily, and how deep you need to dig. Anyway, you will make at least one person happy :-) Cheers, Joachim Joachim Jacob Rijvisschestraat 120, 9052 Zwijnaarde Tel: +32 9 244.66.34 Bioinformatics Training and Services (BITS) http://www.bits.vib.be @bitsatvib On 02/06/2013 02:16 AM, Matthew Paul wrote:

That sounds like a good usability enhancement - and would likely need some knowledge of the mako template system used in Galaxy, and HTML/CSS for the visual styling too. You said it was a long standing enhancement request - is it filed on Trello? http://galaxyproject.org/trello (I couldn't find it myself). Peter
I thought it was on Trello already. Anyway, for the moment I cannot acces Trello... When I do I will search and perhaps add it!

The highlight enhancement request on Trello: https://trello.com/c/vUtbTQ7l Since it was imported from Bitbucket, the duplicated card I mentioned refers to the wrong Trello card. Please consider!

Hi Matt, Here are a couple of things to consider: 1. Fix Select tool to match special characters: https://trello.com/c/cwrBpNP9 2. Extend history export to include composite dataset objects/files: https://trello.com/c/oq1ASbkC There are lots of other ideas, but they tend to be a lot more work. Please let the list know if any of the ideas posted so far grab you, or if you want further explanation. Thanks for your interest and for picking the Galaxy Project. Efforts like these really help the project move forward. Dave C On Tue, Feb 5, 2013 at 8:16 PM, Matthew Paul <mrpaul@g.cofc.edu> wrote:

Are there any lists that are more developer-oriented than this one? There seems to be a mixture of end-user problem reports and tool-specific integration discussions on this list, but not so much discussion of framework development, or at least it can be hard to tune into the latter. Paul

There aren't any other development mailing lists specifically for the framework, this is it. You may want to look at our development Trello board to see more of a detailed view (and comment and vote!): https://trello.com/board/galaxy-development/506338ce32ae458f6d15e4b3 -Dannon
