Does anyone have experience in making this adapter? Would it not be just a translation (at least as far as the keyboard is concerned) from what wire carries what signal?
Yes I have, and no it isn't. Both keyboard and mouse need a processor translate the PS2 signals into something that resembles the Amigas mouse and keyboard.

MMKeyboard adapter works great and is a piece of cake to build.(.assuming you have a PIC programmer..but they're just as easy to make)..plus it can also make use of 'multimedia' keys on modern PC keyboards
For the mouse I built the
PS2M adapter.
