[LLVMdev] Hello!

[Edward O'Callaghan]

Hello Patrick,

Great to have a fellow Ada programmer around, yes there are some tasks
that really need doing !

We^[1] contributed a Ada binding to the LLVM project some months ago.
However, The binding needs to be correctly tighten into the rest of
the LLVM build system properly and it needs possibly some test cases
also.

This would be a really fantastic contribution if you could take care
of this particular project on the Ada front?
We have the intent on some day soon porting the Ada frontend to
LLVM^[2] however the above work needs to be done so the LLVM side is
'ready' for that to happen.

There is of course other projects if your not interested, but I guess
these are a things would like to be done.

Cheers,
Edward.
