llvm dev - Nov 2011 - [LLVMdev] Contributing new backend to LLVM

Thanks, Eric and Eli.  We will do that, and will add some tests to 
include with our submission.

We are also in the process of getting our simulator and C library (both 
proprietary) released under a new license so that folks can download 
them and actually run programs.  That's a couple of months away, though, 
and doesn't really help much for creating LLVM regression tests.  Still, 
it will make reproducing problems easier. :)

It would probably also help to add some systems added to the buildbot
master to test on your actual hardware.

Thank you.  Yes, that's also something we want to do in the relatively 
near future.
