I'd be happy to commit to that for the foreseeable future.

Sounds sane. Would I be able to get access to PSF infrastructure to get 
started on that, or do you want me to get started on my own box? I'll 
probably do the conversion on my own box, but for authn/authz it might 
be useful to be able to use PSF infra.

Moving the current content to a wiki page like you suggest later in this 
thread sounds like a good idea.
