Question on changing IPA-PTA to an IPA_PASS

Hi, just a high level question. I know that IPA-PTA is a SIMPLE_IPA_PASS and that ideally it would be better as an IPA_PASS. I understand that one of the biggest challenges of changing IPA-PTA to an IPA_PASS is that on the current LTO framework, the LTRANS stage can happen at the same time for mul

Protest against removal of RMS from GCC Steering Committee

I strongly disagree with the removal of Dr. Stallman from the Steering Committee. Not only RMS wrote the GCC initially, but I think he is the best person by far who can guarantee the values of free software, with unmatched integrity and lucidity. That's especially important in the SC, given the
