Thanks Dave! 

Thank you for all your contributions over the years! You have contributed to the project in so many different ways and it is very much appreciated. I especially love how welcoming you are to new community members and helping them get off on the right foot.

By 2003, LLVM 1.0 was first released <http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-announce/2003-October/000002.html> with around 11 people contributing to the project. Since that early beginning the community has grown to almost 1700 contributors, had 374,680 commits, and 46 releases - it has been a fast 20 years!

The originally supported native code generators for Sparc and X86 have been expanded to include supporting many more instruction sets, including AMD TeraScale, ARM, AMD Graphics Core Next (GCN), MIPS, PowerPC, PTX, Qualcomm Hexagon, RISC-V, x86-64, XCore, and z/Architecture. The LLVM Project includes many related projects including Clang, lld, lldb, llvm-c++, MLIR, OpenMP, Flang, compiler-rt and more!
