Help - Light weight precision user level time reading

Hi,
   I have couple of questions to work on NetBSD project.

   I had given my project proposal in this Google Summer of
Code'07.(http://www.netbsd.org/contrib/soc-projects.html#fast-ti
me)
Unfortunately, my application was not accepted. But l still 
want to
work on this project. I am novice to Open Source community.
At this
time I just want to know that is there any one who is
working on this
project? Or what is the best source to get details of this
project?
How should I begin at NetBSD kernel?

I'll really appreciate any help or suggestions...
Thanks,
Shaleen.
