I'm not sure how many of the committers relish the idea of reading
through about 1,000 lines of completely uncommented code and trying to
understand what it all means. And that on a wiki page, rather than in
their favourite editor where they would have syntax colouring and
could jump around at will, from definition to usage, etc., to help
understand it. Add to that almost 40 updates to the wiki page in the
last 10 days, and there's even less incentive to start looking at it,
fully expecting a flurry of updates before they've got much beyond the
first paragraph.

I would suggest that you finish your work on it first, then put the
code somewhere that people can download and bring up in their editor,
and have a wiki page that explains what you're trying to do and that
points to the code download. That's much more likely to get people
looking at it, at least in my opinion.
