Making a mod, resources&tips?

I want to change the way intelligence and wisdom works for both priests and mages.
The idea is simple:
- Every 2pts of intelligence that goes beyond or below 14 either adds or subtracts a caster level scaling bonus for spells.
- Specialist mages get no additional spells per level but get a +2 caster level scaling bonus to spells of the selected school.
- Wisdom bonuses to spells per level apply to both mages and priests.
In example:
- A lvl 1 invoker with 10 intelligence works like on live, but can only cast evocation spells until he reaches lvl 3.
- A lvl 1 druid with 18 intelligence can cast only lvl 1 spells, but Shillelagh lasts 2 rounds longer.
Where should I get started? Where do I find tutorials and resources for modding BGEE? And is this even possible to do?

Edit: the closest this comes to being possible is that you can strip specialist mages of their bonus spells by applying appropriately configured effects #42 via the CLAB files. But only Wild Mages can have variable caster levels, and then only in a random, mostly hardcoded manner, and with all spells.
Thanks for the insight!
