I would be interested in a more contributor oriented insight at this point. For example it took me a while to realize that being on Github suddenly means that people edit C code via the web interface without any means to syntax / compile / run test their changes or to sign off their commits.
One thing that has helped us over in the rsyslog project was that we spent a signficant chunk of time setting up Travis (tied into github) and have that doing compile/testsuite runs for PRs that are submitted.
It took quite a while to get done (very little other work for a couple release cycles, about 3 months) but the results have been well worth it.
It would be even harder to setup for LEDE as it is bigger and has more different compile options to test, but I think this would be a very worthwhile thing to do. It's also something that could be setup by someone outside of the core group (working with their own fork of the project until they get things functioning)
