So it looks like the AST branch has landed. Wooo! Well done to all who 
were involved - it seems like it's been a huge amount of work. 

Could someone involved give a short email laying out what concrete (no 
pun intended) advantages this new compiler gives us? Does it just 
allow us to do new and interesting manipulations of the code during 
compilation? Cleaner, easier to maintain, or the like?
