[llvm-dev] Integration of AVR backend

[Anton Korobeynikov via llvm-dev]

Somehow I missed the original e-mail.

I'd say - yes, this would be a very cood backend for inclusion!

You'll need to be prepared for a non-trivial code-review process, but otherwise, please feel free to post a patch to reviews.llvm.org (http://llvm.org/docs/Phabricator.html#requesting-a-review-via-the-web-interface). That's probably the best way to get everyone on the same page regarding what needs to be reviewed.
