Cool, thanks for your interest!

I think those two functions are way too small for a summer of code 
project(~2.5 months of work). I implemented the original half-float conversion 
code in wined3d, and it took me about a day with some tests. This code didn't 
have to deal with too many special cases, so the d3dx* implementation is a bit 
more work, but still not enough to fill 2.5 months.
