[ensembl-dev] EnsEMBL gene build pipeline

Dear EnsEMBL team,
first of all, sorry of this has been asked before - if so, please point
me in the right direction ;)
Anyway, my question concerns the gene build pipeline that EnsEMBL
employs for the various genome projects. I would like to get a better
understanding of how it works and - ideally - get it to work myself. We
have been discussing various available tools for annotation at our
department and currently entertain the idea of providing genome
annotation as a service for other groups (seeing that EnsEMBL doesn't
really have the capacity to take on all the genomes that are being
sequenced nowadays). And for that I would very much like to use the
EnsEMBL code base, since it seems to be the most mature and complete
solution for this purpose.
I have been browsing through the available EnsEMBL documentation, got
eHive to run for example, but I have not really come across a more
in-depth description of which scripts to use, what data to provide and
how to glue everything together.
I understand that there is a short course on this given each year as
part of the Genome Informatics conference, but assuming I won't be able
to make it to that, is there any document around to get me started?
Cheers,
Marc
