perhaps we could also hope that there are some programmers on this project for purely altruistic reasons and not trying to milk $$ from each line of code.... sometimes things need to get done just for the pure reason they need to get done....

Not necessarily that big $$$s. Don't write off the fine upstanding programmers on the koha site's support page if you haven't asked them. Even if their price is too high for your institution, you could probably find other libraries who want it and make a consortium bid. If the programmers can't take the whole job, they may be able to suggest ways of dividing it into smaller ones, or combining some small linked jobs into a larger one. Endless possibilities.
