Not a lot of work in fact; we have good documentation for wb3 & much of
the structure is all in-place for wb2.
For a competant developer the actual coding would be < 1 month all told

Pablo - if you can hire a good engineer to work on this, Novell can
help mentor them / provide documentation / code review etc.
