Could you write a blog post (probably needs several) about the code style, architecture and design of your compiler and the idioms that you talk about ? I love the idea about keeping a project code base so small leveraging concise idioms so that everything fits in a meat-bag head, but have no idea how one goes about achieving that in practice. (Learning APL to get some pearls of wisdom would be fine)
It's something I've been working on for a while, but because the architecture is under constant flex, it's actually more valuable to be able to know how to "experience" or discover the architecture in the compiler code itself than to have a separate document to follow, since it's very easy for that document to get out of date quickly. I am building up a set of documents that discuss some of the core idioms and ideas though, and I hope to have something come of this live session that I can maybe put into an interactive document that people can work with.
