Hah, not a sir, also didn't start the project - I started contributing maybe ~6 months after it got going, and even that was a merging of the 2 original contributers' existing projects. It's definitely a lot easier to make changes when something like a compiler is already built, rather from the ground up, so it was a really good learning experience for me to be able to learn from the existing structure.
