llvm dev - Apr 2012 - [LLVMdev] Fw: Hi guys and llvmbrains! :P

Hello,
Is it possible to use LLVM like JVM (virtual machine)?
If so, How?
Can this be used to create hardware-independent and OS-independent binaries?
Thank you

If you want portable binaries, this is what Google Native Client does::

Whoops, missed the list.
