Welcome Cyjo,
the best way is having patience I think. It really depends, sometimes you'll get response within minutes, sometimes it's a matter of days. There are a few busy bees, but consider the community is spread worldwide.
Don't give up and give your post a
bump if there's no response after couple days.
Currently we are participating in
Google Code-in under the umbrella organization
BRL-CAD what reduces our capabilities too.
Seasons greetings
Armin
