Personally I would not mind too much about performance initially; I'm very confident that lots of optimizations can be done afterwards - maybe even letting the GPU handle certain tasks.

Great! I'll have more free time after March 15, and we can arrange an
IRC meeting to discuss this.
Sounds like a good idea!
