I won't be actively participating in this, but I will be read-only
following it. I like github for this as well since it could be easier to
track the precise questions/objections and track that flow to resolution.
Compared to google docs which is like what a secretary might send to the
boss, but I've never seen used to handle a technical issue like this. To me
this is "code" and I'd love to see how questions are asked and how
that
discussion evolves until resolution. Like a github issue.. Maybe google
docs has this and I've just been missing it. There's also the question
of
how transparent you want this process to be and if you want it to be
accessible to every llvm developer. Telling David to just email you or
making him agree to some Google privacy thing isn't a very warm, friendly
or productive start.

David - I'd propose to get a copy of things in their current state and just
fork it to github. Then invite others to open issues against it.
