Thank you for that. The approach seems reasonable and importing clang/llvm is a good first step. One item that doesn't seem to have been mentioned elsewhere is the the other *BSD Projects - presumably they would also be interested in a BSD-licensed toolchain. Have there been any discussions with representatives from other Projects to investigate a common/shared path forward? I believe that the *BSD's are all similar enough that they could share a common toolchain with minimal local adaptions. The benefit for FreeBSD is that a larger userbase will further encourage "vendor" support. As a second-order effect, the more diverse users that clang/llvm has, the faster bugs will be found (and hopefully fixed). -- Peter Jeremy
