+* An experimental DirectX backend has been introduced to the LLVM tree. It is
+ not packaged with any of the pre-built releases but can be built from source
+ by adding ``-DLLVM_EXPERIMENTAL_TARGETS_TO_BUILD=DirectX`` to your build
+ configuration step.
+* The DirectX backend supports the ``dxil`` architecture which is based on LLVM
+ 3.6 IR encoded as bitcode and is the format used for DirectX GPU Shader
+ programs.
