Buster is beta so this is to be expected, but it's a bit difficult to contribute atm. The project is really modular which is a good thing, but between all the submodules and the setup.js and requiring a gitorious account/public key it's a bit daunting. Most people are used to simply forking a github project and then sending pull requests.

I think the answer is probably just better documentation, and maybe consolidating the repository hosting to either just github or just gitorious but not both. Also - are setup.js and update.js really necessary? That's my feedback as a JS dev who wants to contribute.
