Description

GHC Project have a very nice documentation (and nice videos too) about how internals of the compiler are organized, what are the main data structures and functions. Would be good to have something similar for Pugs.

<audreyt> GHC was impossible to hack, but ever since http://cvs.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Commentary is up
<audreyt> hacking suddenly became much much easier
<audreyt> lifting the GHC commentary's outline, or something like it, to dev.pugscode may be fun too
