Please take a look at the basic documentation here

http://askbot.org/doc/index.html

The simplest command to start installation is

easy_install askbot

However, if you are installing on a shared host, there are some details (--prefix parameter and PATH environment variable). Also you might not yet have easy_install - in that case you'll have to get it first. Other than that, installation is fairly straightforward.

The most reliable updates are available through easy_install and Python Package Index. While it is impossible to guarantee correctness of code, it is becoming more reliable as more automated quality assurance tests are added.

Development version is available at Github, it has the most implemented features, but some may be not quite finished. If you are interested to join developing this software - that would be awesome.
