So, how long will it take? Do you have a (two-)weekly schedule for
features/fixes you want in? It would be nice to get some
approximation.

Also it looks like "all-or-nothing" approach. One of the WSGI features
is to chain web apps together. Do you feel it is possible to run PyPI
+ nextgen side by side? Daytime, XMLRPC, JSON, RSS, upload API from
#58 - these seem like they can be decoupled from persistence layer and
reused for both backends on some point. Rewriting interfaces from
scratch doesn't guarantee that behavior will match.
