As you might have noticed, we’ve begun landing patches to open source the Sony PlayStation®4 system compiler. Many more are coming. I’d like to propose that I be named code owner for this platform. I already have this role internally for open source. It feels necessary to establish as part of the process to handle external contributions. ----------------------------------------- Alex Rosenberg

...wnership of the PS4 triple. Sony is still committed to LLVM and I look forward to continue to work with them in open source.

I know it's quick to ask, but when might support for the new Apple A7 processor appear in tree? Is the 64-bit architecture the same as ARMv8, or will we have a much bigger set of changes to contend with? Alex

If you want to be able to use LLVM DLLs inside a Windows app, it has to be built with MSVC because they have their own C++ ABI. At some point, Clang will support Microsoft's ABI well enough to consider a bootstrap instead. Ah, there's my answe...
