it is prob a lot faster to create custom content than meticulously trying to recreate an exact copy of something from 10+ years ago. of course, that doesn't mean that it will be good or that everyone will agree that it is "classic style content". i doubt it would take any where near as long as the regular expansion releases though, assuming he actually goes this route at all.
This server is mostly nostalgia driven. When it comes right down to it EQ isnt that good of a game anymore, the raids aren't especially challenging, and the grind gets monotonous.
What keeps this game alive is nostalgia and community. New custom content is not... Nostalgic. That coupled with some of the new MMO's will begin pulling the community away. After some time when TMO and other raid guilds have done the raids they want to do enough they will leave. Custom content is not going to keep this server pop high
