Wonderful ! Money-wise, I think the PSF would probably cover these
expenses if we come up
with a good, well-defined project. I have tried to make it a GSoc
topic but I didn't find any student
picking it up because I didn't find the time to describe it deeply enough.

I have created a page here :
http://wiki.python.org/moin/Distutils/TestingInfrastructure

If you want to start there on the topic, that could be great.
