hey Bryan - this sounds like a pretty awesome task to take on, i'd be 
willing to help out with this effort as well.  if/when you come up with 
a plan would it be possible to ping freebsd-current_at_ so that i can see 
if there is anything i'll be able to help out with (assuming there isn't 
already a wiki or list somewhere i can reference to see where i may be 
able to chip in)?

cheers!
