I would still prefer that projects that are not tightly coupled to LLVM (lib*, pstl, compiler-rt) be in separate repositories.  These do not link against LLVM libraries, are not version locked to any given LLVM / clang / whatever release, and most of them need to support multiple LLVM releases, so there is little benefit to having them in the monorepo and there is a disadvantage for people wishing to use and contribute to them independent of the rest of LLVM.
