This file is intended to do four things:
<ol>
<li>
help you get started using LLVM;
</li>
<li>
tell you how to get questions about LLVM answered;
</li>
<li>
tell you where to find documentation for different kinds of questions; and
</li>
<li>
tell you about three LLVM-related mailing lists.

<h2>
Mailing Lists
</h2>
There are three mailing lists for providing LLVM users with information:
<ol>
<li> LLVM Announcements List:<br>
<a href="http://mail.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/llvm-announce">
http://mail.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/llvm-announce</a>
<p>
This is a low volume list that provides important announcements regarding
LLVM. It is primarily intended to announce new releases, major updates to
the software, etc. This list is highly recommended for anyone that uses
LLVM.
</p>
<li> LLVM Developers List:<br>
<a href="http://mail.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/llvmdev">
http://mail.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/llvmdev</a>
<p>
This list is for people who want to be included in technical discussions
of LLVM. People post to this list when they have questions about writing
code for or using the LLVM tools. It is relatively low volume.
</p>
<li> LLVM Commits List<br>
<a href="http://mail.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/llvm-commits">
http://mail.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/llvm-commits</a>
<p>
This list contains all commit messages that are made when LLVM developers
commit code changes to the CVS archive. It is useful for those who want to
stay on the bleeding edge of LLVM development. This list is very high
volume.
