Agreed on the fantastic-ness -- the first 4-5 in the sequence in particular give you a very nice flavor of working in kernel-space, and they are doable. I taught a senior ugrad OS course and experimented with using this as the project sequence.

Some folks excelled (though they put in 15+ hours per week on average, which is quite high), some cratered and I needed a backup plan for them to make progress.
