Look at 2.4.20-pre2-ac3 before you start doing that. A lot of cleanup has been done, although there is plenty more left. A starter is to fix the the ratemask/ratefilter stuff to not use silly while loops on the aec/amd drivers if you are hacking on those, stick in the static variables and document anything relevant looking.
Simple stuff first.
