Dear Piotr,
Thanks for your comments. A GUI is not very likely on the roadmap as
that requires significant time to develop, but I will try my best to
make the online documentation as clear as possible and you can always
email we if you have any questions.
Best,
Diederik

You don't need to be a
software developer (although it helps :)) to help us; some patience, a
bit of time and
a fairly recent computer is all you need. You should be comfortable
installing programs,
working with a command-line interface and have basic Subversion experience.
Python experience is a real bonus!
Quick feedback:
* glad to see progress!
* the wiki pages you link seem well designed and how-to's appear to make
sense :)
* as long as there is a need for a command-line interface and no
graphical user interface, many would-be users will not be able to use it
* ditto for things like Python and Subversion (I never even heard of the
latter...).
I assume that having a GUI is planned in some foreseeable future?
