Would something like this be acceptable?


=== Develop a driver to emulate an existing network-, scsi- or graphic-card in 
software ===

'''Summary:''' Develop a driver for Qemu to emulate an old network-, SCSI- or 
graphic card in software

Qemu allows to emulate a lot of physical machines. Beside widely used
x86 machines as used with KVM, this includes historic machines
based on PowerPC, Alpha or HP PA-RISC CPUs too.
To allow to emulate additional specific historic machine models,
drivers to emulate specific hardware like network-, SCSI- or graphic
cards need to be developed.
This project is about to develop such a driver for the historic
HP PA-RISC architecture, e.g. for the "LASI" network card, or
a driver to emulate a "classic" first-generation NCR 710 SCSI controller.
