[llvm-dev] Managed Languages BOF @ Dev Meeting

[Dounia Khaldi via llvm-dev]

Hi,

I'm planning to attend. I'm interested in hearing about efforts to
add/enhance middle-end and back-end optimizations to LLVM. For example,
will be there something like Polly but more integrated to LLVM and not only
limited to SCoPs?

Best,
Dounia
