You can mention this code review, but you really want to get a wider awareness of the direction and work you're planning to do here. Part of that would be helped by going back and reading the email threads in the past on the x32 backend work. They have important information that you should probably address in your roadmap.

Sorry for the late response. I agree with Chandler and Derek that the best way to move forward is to look at the high level plan. It would also be a good idea to look at the work of Michael Liao and Eli Bendersky who worked on X32 support in LLVM.
