                </div>
                <div>Some really generic/simple stuff I can think of:</div>
                <div>1. trying out LLD on a large program corpus and
                  reporting/reducing/fixing bugs (e.g. contributing to
                  the FreeBSD effort or trying to build a bunch of
                  packages from a linux distro like Debian or Gentoo)</div>
                <div>2. performance analysis and optimization of LLD</div>
                <div>3. getting LLD to link a bootable Linux kernel
                  and/or GRUB</div>
                <div>4. write an input verifier such that LLD can
                  survive intensive fuzzing with no crashes / fatal
                  errors [1] when the verifier says the input is okay.
                  This will allow us to measure what the overhead of
                  doing this actually is.</div>
                <div><br>
                </div>
                <div><br>
                </div>
                <div>[1] As of the latest LLD discussion (in the thread
                  "[llvm-dev] LLD status update and performance chart")
                  it sounds like people are okay with LLD treating fatal
                  errors the same way that LLVM uses assertions; for
                  inputs from the C++ API, we can document to not pass
                  corrupted object files. For inputs read from files,
                  there is still community interest in at least having
                  the option to run a "verifier" to validate the inputs.
                  I think the best way to approach the verifier is to
                  essentially follow the approach suggested by Peter (in
                  the context of "hardening") in <a

                      folks,<br>
                      <br>
                        Happy new year!<br>
                      <br>
                        Last LLVM Developers' Meeting I had a BoF:
                      'Raising Next Generation LLVM Developers'. It was
                      suggested that we should update our open projects
                      page and possibly restructure it a little bit.<br>
                      <br>
                        I volunteered to do this work and I need your
                      help.<br>
                      <br>
                      <br>
                        Chandler and I started working on a google doc
                      [1]. We pinged few code owners asking them to list
                      of work items we should get done in 2017 but we do
                      not have the manpower. Now we would like to ask
                      for your input, too.<br>
                      <br>
                        I believe an up to date list can serve as a good
                      entry point for students, interns and new
                      contributors.<br>
                      <br>
                        Feel free to propose a new item or comment under
                      an existing one. I expect to start gradually
                      updating the page beginning of Feb.<br>
