The first step is to get community buy-in for this project.  The thread you've started in webkit-dev is a good way to do that.

After you have support from the community, you'll need to break up this patch into smaller pieces that can be reviewed.  I think we recommend patches that are smaller than 20 KB, but that's just a guideline, not any kind of hard rule.

I think the main question that people have about this patch is how widely used will USE(PICASSO) be?  Are you the only one who is going to work on it?  Are there going to be buildbots that build and test this configuration?  etc.  Supporting a new graphics back end is a lot of work for the community.
