[llvm-dev] flang in llvm.org source tree (original) (raw)

Seems like this should also go to flang-dev so I'm adding it.

"flang" is basically a legacy project. "f18" is the new ground-up build of a Fortran LLVM project. f18 is the thing that has the most likelihood of becoming an "official" LLVM project.

However, it's probably going to be a while before we get there. For one thing, I haven't seen any posts on flang-dev that talk about making changes to f18, proposing designs, etc. The development seems completely opaque right now, which is unfortunate.

I would like to see f18 become "official" sooner rather than later, both to open up development and to get better code sharing across projects.

Is there a schedule for when flang will be merged into the official llvm.org svn/git source trees instead of having to do standalone custom builds with additional patches? Jack
