There's not a lot, but I just made a few improvements here and here:
http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/planner-optimizer.html
http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/geqo-pg-intro.html
Beyond that, the GEQO chapter provides several references, and IMHO
you should not be all that resistant to looking into the source code.
Even if you don't read C well, many of the files provide a wealth of
info in the comments.
