This has been suggested before - task-milky-milky was suggested on u.c.o.l by 
someone I can't remember, but I myself was also accused of suggesting it by 
one R. Morrell. I think anyone who did take it on would have to take serious 
steps in terms of asbestos lining....

.. that said, it would make a pretty good LUG project - pretty easy to; if 
you look at the SmoothWall codebase, it's not huge by any means.
