Sorry, I didn't mean to imply you were a novice, just a slight warning to be prepared when you dive into the code!
Some documentation would be nice for the compiler, but I'm not sure where to begin there except maybe with outlining the individual compiler stages (creating nodes, simplifying nodes, building target-specific assembly language, peephole optimisation etc.) Gareth aka.
