The hacker's lab will be organized similar to the one at the US 2016
meeting [0]. That means 1.5 hour sessions and theme tables in the
different rooms. Each table (~10) will have a sign on it to represent a
sub-project or area of LLVM. This will help newcomers and even active
developers congregate together on specific topics.

In addition to labeling tables, we are asking for volunteers to
represent a sub-project or topic related to the meeting. These
volunteers should be knowledgeable about the sub-project/topic and able
to answer some basic questions or point people to the right developer to
talk to. If volunteers want to go a step further, they could prepare a
list of bugs that groups could work on during the Hackers Lab. This is
very open ended in what the leader of the table can do, but the main
goal is to provide a space for developers' to meet and find each other
who are interested in a specific topic or sub-project.

Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

  LLVM
  Backends, Code Generation, Register Allocation, Machine Code Layer, ISel
  LLDB, Debug Info, DWARF
  LTO
  Polly
  MCJIT
  Mid-level optimizations, pass manager, loop optimizations, etc
  TableGen
  Sanitizers
  Windows support
  Exception handling
  lld

  Clang, Libs, & Frontend tools
  Clang - parsing, LLVM IR generation, etc
  Static Analyzer
  OpenCL
  Clang Tools - clang tidy, clang rename
  parallel-libs
  Open MP
  libC++
  llgo


Please let us know ASAP if you are interested! In the rare event there
are too many volunteers, we may combine topics at tables.
