Can you explain what you mean by "require some more work" please?

As far as I can remember the API provided by the code has not changed,
the changes have only been improvements to the internal code.

The SYB3 paper describes how to use it, but other than that there is no
documentation. Of course, if anyone wanted to write some other docs then
that would be great!

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking. syb-with-class is
BSD3-licenced, and anyone is free to use it for whatever they want
within the terms of that licence.
