[LLVMdev] Current state of the lld project

Hello list,

on the lld main page at http://lld.llvm.org, it says:

"lld is in its early stages of development.
It can currently self host on Linux x86-64 with -static."

Is this information up-to-date?
I'm interested in using lld on Windows (win32 on PC) with object files
created by llvm (no clang involved). Is that possible at this time?

It would be awesome to be able to create a compiler based on llvm that
does not have any third party dependencies. Currently, to my
knowledge, the linker is the only third party dependency left, is it?
Or is an assembler required that is called by llvm that I am not aware of?

Greetings,

Daniel Albuschat
