It could be done by one person, one very talented person.. 
unfortunately almost all of them are already taken and working on 
projects. If you did manage to find the right person could we 
realistically fund them to work on such a project.

developed over the years, monod, coded, visuald etc but they do 
all seem to die off eventually which is upsetting.
