[cfe-dev] What are the plans for creating a Windows Binary Release of Clang?

[Devin Crumb]

I am definitely interested in contributing to such an effort and fully
support the idea of trying to make an LLVM libc as cross platform as
possible (and have some experience in this area).  However, I want to
understand what is going to be expected of me if I am the one to actually
start the effort before taking on such a commitment.
