[llvm-dev] LLVM Fortran front-end

[C Bergström via llvm-dev]

Didn't you see Hal's reply?
He keeps saying that they will announce something. I expect it will likely
be timed around ISC17 or SC17 if it will be this year.

Frankly I'm more than disappointed about the lack of transparency. Hal
talked about people having concerns over how "open source" Intel was about
their OMP runtime, but this is way beyond that. A **** press release and no
code for over a year?! Is that *really* how the open source process works?
All that did was derail legitimate efforts on a real Flang.

>From the slides I've seen there's going to be a "PGI IR" between "Flang"
and llvm ir I guess. If that's really the case then I'm curious if this is
using a similar approach to what others have publicly worked already.

btw if you zoom in on the rather useless slides that are floating around -
you'd see that ThePortlandGroup/Flang github project was showing little
recent activity. I'll let others get their tinfoil hats to speculate
further..
