[cfe-dev] Clangd BoF?

[Marc-Andre Laperle via cfe-dev]

Here is the draft of the abstract I submitted:

Clangd: A new Language Server Protocol implementation leveraging Clang

Clangd is a new tool developed as part of clang-tools-extra. It aims
at implementing the Language Server Protocol, a protocol that provides
IDEs and code editors all the language "smartness". Work in this area
is only just beginning however there is already a large interest
surrounding it. This BoF session will be a nice opportunity for the
attendees to get to know each other as well as discuss several topics
that will help make this tool a success.

Possible agenda/topics:
- Introductions
- Goals and scope of Clangd
- Existing language server implementations. Comparisons,
advantages/disadvantages, etc.
- Challenges
- Proposed architecture
- Collaborations and planning




Keep in mind that this is just a proposal and it will need to be
reviewed and accepted. But I thought I'd share it early anyway :)

Cheers,
Marc-André
