It is my pleasure to announce that LLVM 3.8.0 is now available! Get it here: http://www.llvm.org/releases/download.html#3.8.0 This release contains the work of the LLVM community over the past six months: deprecated autoconf build, shrink-wrapping on by default, overhauled MSVC-compatible exception handling, updated Kaleidoscope tutorial, emutls, OpenMP supported by default, as well as improved optimizations, many bug fixes, and more. Release notes for more details: http://llvm.org/releases/3.8.0/docs/ReleaseNotes.html http://llvm.org/releases/3.8.0/tools/clang/docs/ReleaseNotes.html Huge thanks to everyone who helped with testing, bug fixing, packaging, and getting the release into a good state! Special thanks to the volunteer release builders and testers, without whom there would be no releases: Dimitry Andric, Brian Cain, Ismail Donmez, Renato Golin, Sylvestre Ledru, Elias Pipping, Ben Pope, Daniel Sanders, and Nikola Smiljanic! If you have any questions or comments about the release, please contact the community on the mailing lists. Onward to 3.9! - Hans (LLVM 3.7.1 Release Announcement: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-announce/2016-January/000066.html)
