-\section{Getting the source}
-gsa1 and gsa2 are earmarked for Sting repository development, and the scr1 thumper is used for Sting storage.
-
-To download the source:
-\begin{enumerate}
-  \item log into gsa1 or gsa2.  Create a directory for yourself on the scr1 thumper as follows:
-    \begin{verbatim}
-      mkdir /wga/scr1/{YOUR USER NAME}
-    \end{verbatim}
-  \item Download the source as follows:
-    \begin{verbatim}
-      svn co https://svnrepos/Sting/trunk Sting
-    \end{verbatim}
-  \item (Optional) mount the thumper locally using share name smb://thumper01/scr1.
-\end{enumerate}
-
-\section{Build Prerequisites}
-Sting requires Java SE 6 to compile.  The steps below describe preparing your system for JDK 1.6 compilation.
-
-\subsection{Mac}
-\begin{enumerate}
-  \item Download the latest Mac Java service pack.  At the time of writing, the latest service pack is available here: \url{http://support.apple.com/downloads/Java_for_Mac_OS_X_10_5_Update_2}
-  \item Set the JAVA\_HOME environment variable to the location of JDK1.6 (/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6/Home).
-\end{enumerate}
-
-\subsection{Linux in the Broad Environment}
-  To compile Sting on gsa1 or gsa2, add the following lines to your ~/.my.cshrc:
-  \begin{verbatim}
-    use -q Java-1.6
-    use -q Ant-1.7
-  \end{verbatim}
-
-\section{Building the Source}
-To build the source, locate all build.xmls for required projects.  In each directory containing a build.xml, run the command:
-\begin{verbatim}
-ant
-\end{verbatim}
-
-You might also find the following ant targets useful.  \input{Ant_Help}
-
-\section{Adding Third-party dependencies}
-A large number of popular third-party tools are available via the maven repository (\url{mvnrepository.com}).  If your tool is available in the maven repository, add a line to the ivy.xml file similar to the following:
-\begin{verbatim}
-    <dependency org="junit" name="junit" rev="4.4" />
-\end{verbatim}
-If your third-party dependency is not available via ivy, talk to Aaron or Matt.
