BesPin Setup??????

Looking at the title one may think i didn't formulate a question correctly,... however it IS well formulated indeed =),and the story behind it goes as follows :
In the previuos session of our Open Source development course
Link(click here),we were introduced to a new tool called Bespin.Bespin is an online editor that is mainly used as a build tool for bigger projects.Through the nature of BesPin and being an ONLINE editor,it provides it's users with the ability to interact,share and work on the same code,even though they might be continents far away. Which of course enhances the efficeny of thw work process,and speeds up the whole Software Engineering process. However,Bespin is not as "pink" as it seems to be ... the source code of BesPin is still under heavy development (which eliminates the possibility of working on it as my major project for the open source development course :S ). The source code is rapidly changing and there is no stable version available yet. Due to this major unstability in the source code of the BesPin projct,i faced some abnormal difficulties while trying to set the system up on my local machine :S:S . I followed all possible online tutorials,and even some combinations of those,none of them met success :S . I even wasted nearly half a day (literately 12 hours) trying to set the system up on the machine..but again with no success.
Anyway,enough for now about the current progress in the BesPin project....and who knows,maybe after today's class some positive changes to the progress might be posted on this very same blog :D!!!
