Indeed.  We have a lot of projects on kernel.org which are like this: 
not at all conceptually hard, but a huge time commitment for Doing It 
Right[TM].  This is why I sometimes think that it would be a Good Thing 
to get paid staff for kernel.org, although I was hoping to defer the 
need for that until at least we have our 501(c)3 paperwork done, which 
looks like mid-2007 at this point (assuming no further delays.)
