This sort of thing is very important. One of the (many) issues that hinders open source projects is that it is difficult to jump into the code, even for experienced developers. Every project can benefit by making contributing easy and building as quick and painless as possible. I still remember a couple years ago I wanted to contribute to Chromium. I took one look at the build instructions and decided I didn't want to contribute that badly...
