[llvm-dev] [llvm-admin] Pre-built binaries for Ubuntu 20.04?

[Brian Cain via llvm-dev]

The releases are provided by project volunteers. I'm among the ones who
usually provide binaries for Ubuntu and I apologize for not getting a 20.04
release built for 10.0.0.

I can produce one for 10.0.1 now but release owners aren't always keen
about taking them far after release time.
