Is the source code for TibSun available for modding?

I have enjoyed fiddling around with the text file stuff to mod units and things, but two things I really want to do require altering the game code.

First, massive maps. I might be in the minority here, but I love longer matches with searching for opponent's bases and stuff, and thus even the "large" maps feel rather constrained in this regard. Given the advancements in computer hardware, I've always wanted to see the extra memory and processing go to making a bigger map with more bases and units instead of focusing on graphics. And when I say bigger maps, I think maps that are ten or even twenty times larger would be cool. Could almost get lost in that.

Second, making alterations to the random map generator. I'm a huge nerd for procedural generation, so I'd love to poke around this system and make adjustments, especially with larger maps.
