I'm changing the subject to avoid hijacking the original thread
----------
Chandler has raised concerns I'm unqualified to review any of the OpenMP
work being submitted by Intel. I respect his opinion, but at the same
time I'd like to continue reviewing these patches where I have the time.
I obviously can't do this unless others feel I am qualified though.
To further clarify - in some cases I'm acting as a proxy to other
engineers on our team. (Most of these engineers have many years of
experience working with clang). I realize bandwidth for the clang
developers to review OMP is limited - my goal is to help provide a 2nd
set of eyes on low risk contributions in order to help get great OMP
support in clang. You'll see based on history I don't review random things.
2nd - in the event my review isn't perfect and there's some intricate
detail I missed - in general the Intel team is extremely responsive and
a minor follow-up commit would likely fix any nit. (With the downside of
some commit noise, but in general I don't think every llvm/clang commit
is perfect out of the box - I can't speak for the community, but it
seems reasonable to me)
If anyone wants to +1 me as a reviewer for the OMP work please speak up.
(Otherwise I won't be able to provide further help in this area)
Thanks
