You're good enough to contribute materially to *this* project, which
is by no means the easiest C gode to grok. That makes you expert in
my book.

I was deliberately vague about the subproject dependencies and what
can be done in parallel, because the point of this document is a
scope-of-work estimate that might get us some money for things like a
hardware test lab. Also it would be nice if Ian and I could pay our
rent and grocery bills while we're doing the Go port.
If this work plan looks like it'll fly I'll do a more detailed
dependency chart.

Agreed. I occasionally do a triage pass to catch these. I guess we're
due for one.
