-This poster describes the basic functionality and features of the newly released
-LLVM IR editor plugin for Eclipse.
+LLVM IR SDK is an Eclipse plugin that adds an LLVM IR (.ll files) editor to
+Eclipse.  Intended for LLVM developers, it is designed to provide nearly the
+same level of support for IR files that other programming languages enjoy under
+Eclipse, making it easier to write tests and analyze pass output.  By
+incorporating a wide range of validation checks <q>as you type</q> - from simple
+syntax checks through full type validation and up to dominance analysis - the
+plugin enables a quick modify-and-run cycle for IR files, without having to run
+LLVM module validation in-between.  In addition, the plugin exposes a variety of
+<q>quick-fix</q> options for common code actions, such as fixing broken number
+sequence for local names, inserting conversions between types, inserting
+function declarations inferred from a function call, and more.
