[LLVMdev] Introducing LLBrowse: A graphical browser for LLVM modules

[Garrison Venn]

Looks cool Talin. 

Personally it would be nice if it was checked into llvm.org, but is wxWidgets LGPL like license
an issue for  llvm's repository? 

Anyway I would be interested in a copy otherwise under a BSD like license.

Thanks in advance
