Getting everything set up to move forward is sometimes the hardest 
thing...  You will have to discuss this with your mentor, but a few 
posts in some appropriate indexed forum would be very useful for others. 
Also, if you can document what steps you went through to make it work.  
Speaking for myself, once I get something like this to work I start off 
with a clean dir/disk and follow my notes step by step so that I know I 
did not miss anything when writing it all down.

Anyway, like I said, talk to your mentor and see what is reasonable to 
add along these lines, but I would love to see this documented.

Keep up the good work, and best of success.
