</div>Hi Timur,<br>
<br>
Disagree strongly on this.<br>
<br>
The Windows build of clang 3.4 is absolutely production-grade in almost<br>
every area now. It's not a major problem if codegen isn't quite there<br>
yet as long as it's mentioned in the release notes.<br>
<br>
Compelling features like refactoring, the C SDK, Python API, static<br>
analyser -- nearly all the "exciting" features that set clang apart --<br>
are all production-grade on Windows and have been for some time.<br>
<br>
When it comes time to compile, there are plenty of commodity compilers<br>
out there that'll get the job done as a stopgap.<br>
<br>
clang 3.4 on Windows is something to announce and be proud of, not to<br>
hide away as 'alpha'<br>
