Hi Alexei,

I completely agree with you.  Unfortunately, clang is moving really  
really fast right now and things are changing rapidly as we work to  
finish off C/ObjC and bring up C++ in parallel.  Much documentation is  
still needed in many areas, hopefully this will improve as clang  
matures.
