Of course it isn't.  But it's the *easiest*, most *harmless*, way
that you could get started.  It's not an urgent job.  Once
somebody knows python and that script, it's a 5-minute job to fix
it.

That's why I thought it would be perfect for you to start with.
As a general rule of thumb, 5 minutes of experienced developer
time translates to about 5 hours for a complete beginner.  If
you're not a complete beginner at python and the script, then
reduce the estimate according to however you rank your own skill.

It's plausible, but I really don't know how the system works.  You
could try asking John Mandereau.

I still think you should start with an easy job, but if you want
to jump straight into the hard stuff, go ahead.
