Hi all,

Is there any release plan/schedule for SAFECode for LLVM version 3.2?
I can schedule my updates to the SoftBoundCETS pass in the safecode repository accordingly.

SAFECode and Poolalloc are now tracking the release_32 branch of LLVM which should stop changing shortly (i.e., after the release).  All development on poolalloc and SAFECode trunk should have ceased, and all new development should be happening on the SAFECode and poolalloc release_32 branches and should work with LLVM 3.2.

The rationale for this is that we have limited developer time, so I'm not keen on spending it to update poolalloc/SAFECode to work with the latest LLVM API change.  That said, do other developers agree that this is the right course of action?  Are there people that want to track LLVM mainline instead of sticking to LLVM 3.2?
