+ <p>This document collects information about successfully releasing LLVM to the
+ public. It is the release manager's guide to ensuring that a high quality build
+ of LLVM is released. Mostly, its just a bunch of reminders of things to do at
+ release time so we don't inadvertently ship something that is utility
+ deficient.</p>
