Hi,

Just out of curiosity, does Cling follow LLVM trunk, or does it stick with a particular LLVM release for awhile like SAFECode does?

I have no idea. Maybe the cling developer Vassil could answer you this question.

In the past we updated to LLVM and Clang's trunks on daily basis. This is the most preferable way to do it IMO. However, recently we started integrating cling in a bigger project at CERN and the amount of time we were waiting for reviews was too long for us. Independent on that we wanted to try enhancing the C++ Module support. This required many non-trivial patches. Currently we are pretty close to finishing the work in our branch and we will start feeding back the patches in the mainline and I hope soon we will be back to at least weekly syncs.
