+In order to open a ticket first you need to register on the Trac of Padre. 
+Unfortunately due to excessive spam and our lack of capability to setup SPAM 
+filter we had to disable the registration form and we have to manually enable
+for every new person. Don't worry though as it is easy to do so. You just have
+to join us on IRC ( http://padre.perlide.org/irc.html?channel=padre ) (TODO describe IRC more)

+We recommend first installing a released version of Padre as described on http://padre.perlider.org/download.html and on
+[wiki:Download].
+Once that's working on your system it will be easier to switch to development mode.
 
-= Setup Development Environment on Linux =
+In order to develop padre you will need to have a Subversion client. 
+
+The URL of our SVN repository is at http://svn.perlide.org/padre/trunk/
+
+It is required to setup a few more utilities to get the developer's environment ready. 
+Specifically you need to install Module::Install from CPAN. See instructions below:
+
+To run Padre from the workspace checked out from SVN type "perl dev.pl"
+
+== Windows ==
+
+For Windows we recommend the Tortoise SVN client you can download from http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/
+
+To install Module::Install open a command prompt and navigate to the folder of the 
+source code (e.g. d:\padre\padre) and type in the following command "cpan Module::Install" (notice: this is case sensitive)
+
+Now you are ready to compile the code you are using.  in the same root of your source code tpye "perl Makefile.PL" and press enter
+Once this finished type "dmake" and press enter
+
+== Linux ==
+
+$ cpan Module::Install
