[Diana Picus]

== Progress ==

* EuroLLVM trip [6/10]

* [GlobalISel] AArch64 test-suite and self-host [TCWG-1074][2/10]
- Apple wants to switch the default O0 to GlobalISel for AArch64, so
we need to run tests and gather metrics
- I'm running the test-suite and selfhost with GlobalISel to see how
it performs

* Misc [2/10]
- Mailing list, code reviews, meetings, herding GlobalISel cats
(we're trying to open more communication channels with Apple so we can
unblock progress)

== Plan ==

* Wrap up TCWG-1074
* Learn more TableGen and do more code review
