[cfe-dev] Msg 4 Introduction Re: cfe-dev Digest, Vol 82, Issue 82

[Tim Toomay]

Another new person here, I am Tim.  I am getting started with Clang and 
willing to pitch in.  Never worked on compilers before other than java 
script.

I am drawn by cross platform so we can support freebsd linux mac and 
windows with a single code base more or less, begining with windows.  I 
can do some grind it out stuff on windows.  I have gotten clang/llvm to 
build on MSVC2013, at least something builds and says success, so its a 
start.

I am also willing to do whatever consensus is that is needed most.  I 
appreciate the fact this compiler exists!  Looking for the entry point.
