I think one big step would be to give non-members (such as e.g. me) the
possibility to actually push commits in a form comparable to Github's pull
requests. That is I would like to be able to make modifications and push them
to a fork and ask for them to be reviewed and included directly from within the
repostory's web interface.
An alternative way to encourage contribution would be some more straightforward
way to get commits from my local LilyPond clone into the official review
process.
