The problem I see with building and therefore contributing is that the code is structured as a single unit and to build any one part you have to have built the whole thing.
How serious an impediment do you think it is? Yes, you have to build a couple parts of the tree (not the whole thing, though that's the easiest approach) but only once. Then you can churn inside one project without ever rebuilding anything.

For example, I have created my own BA and the first thing I had to do
Why did you have to do that?

To make things easier I would like to suggest that all the WiX extensions
Why the extensions? Or, why *just* the extensions?

The BalExtension is quite good in that all the source is in the same folder but many others e.g. the IIsExtension has the code spread around to you have to look in the "ext" folder and "ca\serverca" to find the code.
It just requires a bunch of splitting the DLLs, mostly the Util stuff that lives in serverca.
