= Welcome to the !OpenMary development page =

This is the home of the source code of the !OpenMary text-to-speech synthesis system. 

For an introduction to MARY, online demos, and for downloading an installer for the MARY system, go to the  [http://mary.dfki.de main MARY page].


On these development pages, you can [source: browse the source code], and [http://mary.opendfki.de/newticket submit bug reports] (but look at the [report:3 existing bug reports] first!).

== Bug reports ==

The ticketing system for creating tickets used to be open to anyone. Unfortunately, too much spam was created (more than 10 spam reports for one real report), so we had to restrict access.

To report a bug, we must now ask you to first '''get an account''' on this portal, by following these two simple steps:

1. fill in [https://config.opendfki.de/regaccount.php this form] to create an opendfki account;

2. [mailto:schroed@dfki.de ask Marc] to add your account to the !OpenMary project.

With that new account, you will be able to report bugs / create tickets on the portal. Sorry for the inconvenience!

== Mailing List ==

If you use the MARY system, you can subscribe to the [http://dfki.de/mailman/listinfo/mary-users mary-users mailing list]. Over time, interesting pieces of information may also accumulate in the [http://www.dfki.de/pipermail/mary-users/ mary-users list Archives].


== Wiki documentation ==

This page is a wiki page, which means that '''you''' can edit it. Feel free to add relevant tips and tricks. See WikiFormatting for details.

Here are some entry points to get us started:

 * [wiki:FrequentlyAskedQuestions Frequently Asked Questions]
 * [wiki:ClunitImportTutorial Import Cluster Unit Voices into MARY]
 * [wiki:VoiceImportToolsTutorial Building a New Voice for MARY using Voice Import Components]

Guidelines for code development:

 * [wiki:ExceptionGuidelines Guidelines to the use of Exceptions in MARY code]

== SVN access to the repository ==

You can check out the source code from SVN, using the following command:

{{{
   svn checkout https://mary.opendfki.de/repos/trunk openmary
}}}

== Want to help? ==

As all open source projects, !OpenMary can only thrive with contributions from the community.

If you have a suggestion what you would like to implement, it might be a good idea to discuss it on the [http://dfki.de/mailman/listinfo/mary-users mary-users list], and/or to [/newticket submit a ticket].

If you would like to help but would need inspiration what you could do, do take a look at the [report:3 active tickets], or more specifically at the section [http://mary.opendfki.de/milestone/Volunteers%20wanted%21 Volunteers wanted]!

Contact Marc Schröder (schroed at dfki.de) if you want to get write access to the repository.
