> For the specific project of making this remote browser accessible, my wild guess is that if Cloudflare were to hire me to work on the project (no, not available at the moment), it could easily take a few months, but probably not more than a year. They could probably cut down that time if they hired away someone from the Chrome or Edge team who's actually an expert on Chromium accessibility specifically; I admit my main expertise is in Windows accessibility.
And of course it's possible that even what I wrote there is too optimistic.
I'm sorry I was unclear. What I meant was that I could see the project easily taking at least a few months, and maybe up to a year, but likely not more than a year.
Also, the intent of that comment was to give my answer to a question about how big a project this would be, not to suggest that Cloudflare should "just" hire me. I even suggested that I wouldn't necessarily be the best person for the job.
