[cfe-dev] Version 3.5 testing game plan

[Tim Toomay]

I will work towards using RC1 with Code::Blocks on w7, which looks like 
it already has sample clang setup, and go as far as possible. I am 
interested in hearing from any w7 people that want to comment. When I 
get farther I will contact  Bill Wendling

Thanks!
