In order to evaluate and explore Rational Team Concert, a hub is provided free of charge for university students. This document explains how a project for Rational Team Concert can be created in the Jazz hub. To support team collaboration across multiple platforms and technologies, Rational Team Concert provides users with an Eclipse-based client interface, a Microsoft Visual Studio client interface, and a web interface. This document includes the Eclipse and web interfaces only, for more information on how to install the Microsoft Visual Studio client interface visit Every member of the team shall create an account in Jazz.net (see section 2). Only the team lead needs to create a new project (see section 3) and provide access for the rest of the team (see section 4). The rest of the team can access the project just by logging in to Jazz.net (see section 5). To configure the Eclipse client see section 6.
