We would like to do it, but we are currently not staffed to do it.

This would be good, and the help would be appreciated.

If this is your first time, my advise is that you always start by
writing unit tests to understand ASP.NET.  Since its so easy to automate
tests for ASP.NET, it is the best way of learning the API and ensuring
that the implementation is correct.

Once you have tests written, you could start with the classes.  I would
not write a line of code without a test ;-)

Miguel.
