[LLVMdev] Long-Term Support for LLVM Projects Extension to Build System?

Dear All,

Will the LLVM project system (the extension to the build system that 
allows sub-projects to reuse the LLVM Makefiles) be maintained long 
term, or is the slow push to CMake intending to deprecate this 
functionality?

We used this feature a lot for research projects at UIUC, but if the 
current maintainers of the build system are planning on deprecating it, 
I'll have my students avoid using it.

Regards,

John Criswell
