Quickly: I am an outside developer, I have only contributed small patches here 
and there and our main platform, curriki.org, is heavily using XWiki.

It really often happens that many many things get answered but sure sometimes 
things fall through the cracks. The XWiki SAS team answers real well for many 
issues, others also answer fast. I try to help when I can and quite a few 
others as well. I am sorry I did not see your request but building is not 
really my expertise. I rarely had issues at building I must say.

There are encouragements to participate and these are basically at the level of 
fame and peer approval (being a mailing-list), and of course in terms of being 
helped quickly, e.g. that happened just now on #xwiki and the collaboration 
curriki xwiki is rather a fruitfui collaboration.
