+# Community Call 2026-10-21
+
+## Agenda
+
+* Design docs and/or RFCs
+  * [\[RFC\] Relaxing coding standard rule for {}-initialization](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-relaxing-coding-standard-rule-for-initialization/92443)
+    * Some initial discussion on Discourse, current status is a suggestion from one person that the rule should be relaxed for auto, but further relaxation is still desired by others
+    * Appeal to not overgeneralize and consider individual cases
+    * Currently there is a divergence from the LLVM Coding Standards, and there is a question about whether this is really what the community wants
+    * Agree to relax auto now, but need further discussion on further relaxation
+      * Will make PR for the docs
+  * [RFC: Compiler directives defined by plugins](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-compiler-directives-defined-by-plugins/92431)
+    * Related PR: [https\://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/228757](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/228757)
+    * No update at this time, continue discussion on PR
+  * [\[RFC\]\[flang\] Version array-section loops when the runtime extent matches the declared extent](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-flang-version-array-section-loops-when-the-runtime-extent-matches-the-declared-extent/91956)
+    * Related Issue: [https\://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/227442](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/227442)

+    * PR has been merged
+  * [\[RFC\]\[flang\] Expanding array expressions and assignments at O0/-g](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-flang-expanding-array-expressions-and-assignments-at-o0-g/91971)
+    * Relates to the previous bullet point topic. Addressing slow performance in places.

Neither: the link text is the issue's title from before it was renamed on 2026-09-10, and the part after the slash is its current title (both lines carried over from the 2026-10-07 notes). Keeping only the current title:
