I've been piecing it together by writing little test scripts, but it is slow going. In particular, it is very difficult to understand the meaning of verbs like "cook" and "preserve" and nouns like "persistent store" without some global picture of what's going on.

Beyond the code, no.

I would be happy to answer questions, but obviously I'm not super responsive :).  Let me know what you need.
