Yeah, just to add on to that... the git workflow is a little hard to get at first. There's really no *central *repository, although my fork of the project is the one most people will pull from, and submit changes to. You can pull changes from any fork you like into your own fork. So, for example, if Carl's fork has something you wan, you just pull it and merge the changes into yours. Then I might come along and decide I want to merge both those into my fork, which effectively acts as the central fork.
I do all my development is my edge branch ( http://github.com/bborn/communityengine/tree/edge), and when things in that branch stabilize, I merge them into my master branch and issue a new version number. Regarding the messages, yes, there are a few things that are hidden (or rather, not exposed very well). Feel free to ask about them on the list. Thanks!
