I agree 100%, the friction for contributing this project is huge. Not only the setup of the project, but the review process, tools, build, etc.
We are trying to improve the process, right now contribution to the documentation has been enormously simplified (please don't hesitate improve to the contributors page if you found something wrong or unclear) but anyway we must continue working to facilitate code contributions, we love hearing suggestions and ideas from you.
