Mod Re-write - Can some convert this EXCELLENT one from Craven de Kere??

[Razasharp]

Hi

I was just wondering if anyone could conver this AMAZING mod rewrite that Craven de Kere made for the phpbb system. I am using it on my current phpbb board and it really is excellent. I'm not a coder myself so was wondering if anyone has the knowledge to convert this? I can put hand on heart to say it's the best one I've seen.

Here it is:
