Basically its just using what is already there. Your glory and reputation allow other races to teach you their technology path.

Asgard have the def tech line, hologram tech and the 25% def bonus.
Tauri have the att tech line, rapid evac tech and 25% att bonus.
Replicators have the cov tech line, Advanced Unit Regeneration SubRoutine tech, 25% cov bonus and cheaper cov levels
Goauld have the 25% inc bonus, Advanced Host Processing tech and free banking
Ascended have their stronger weaps and MS weaps/sheilds/fleets.

So it would work like this. When you get your first 1000 GnR, you trade for FSS. Then once you accumilate another 1k you can use it to assimilate another race's tech structure (listed above) into your own.

As far for the cost of doing this (you concentrate on learning so hard it causes disruptions to your realm) it would go mainly along the lines of ascension
1. techs are reset
2. weaps are lost
3. Supers are lost (and possibly spies as well)
4. UP is reset (or at least some of it is lost)
5. Cov levels are reset

So in the end you will have sort of mongrel race with the best of all the unascended with ascended weaps. It will cost as much GnR as getting to LG and have the same bonus accross the board (25%) without having to worry about playing another server. Not much of an idea but it might spark someone else's imagination for something better

Does this mean that they also get all the techs? I'm not so sure this would work. As they would still be only 50% of the strength of the ascended accounts. But good idea none the less
