Documentation, and Subsystem Documentation. Some topics are easier to categorize than others, such as topics specific to getting started, troubleshooting, logging bugs, etc. But other topics are harder to categorize. Should they be broken up based on where
they fall within the LLVM toolchain? For example, a category for topics specific to the Optimizer.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
