[wp-hackers] Amount of estimated developer-hours in Wordpress?

[Chris Williams]

In the classic "Mythical Man Month" Brooks estimated 10 lines of code per developer per day.  That's clearly wildly dependent on the project, but may be a good place to start.  Just count lines, call each one an hour and go from there.

Hi,

Does anyone know the estimated amount of developer hours in Wordpress
(latest release, no themes or plugins).
I want to use this in an argument of platform-based vs bespoke.
