Ask HN: how hard is it to maintain your own clone of HN ?

There's a site I want to start - and I think the code behind news.yc (http://github.com/nex3/arc if I'm right) would be a nice fit for that.

I'm not an arc-ist at all, hence my question: is there anyone running its own copy, without much knowledge of Arc ? Has it been hard to tweak, maintain, support ?

(I definitely appreciate the learning opportunity it would represent - but I really want to be able to sustain the site, first)

Thoughts?
