I will take this opportunity to add a few comments and promote a page.
To help improve chances of success for such a project, perhaps a
"community" edition of the protocol is in order. I have been planning
(and still are) to do a review of the protocol specification with input
from the mailing list. Basically, I am thinking to break the current RFC
document into self-contained chunks: a formal introduction + goals,
meta file and tracker part, and finally repository serialization and peer
wire.

In preparation, I started to populate pages at:

  http://gittorrent.googlecode.com/

If there is interest I will try to find time to restart this process.
