Hi everyone,
I'd like to know if adding some credits on the releases.llvm.org page would be
aligned with the community rules and spirit, and in such a case can be
considered?
The reason behind this question is that as you know testing and building our
releases is a time consuming task, and maybe it would help in the discussions
on ressources allocation with our various companies, organizations or members
if there is a better/wider visibility for them than some emails
addresses embedded inside a file in the sources.
Cheers,
Yvan
I am fine with:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/master/llvm/RELEASE_TESTERS.TXT
But if you have strong opinion on this, maybe add a new section on this page at the end:
https://llvm.org/docs/HowToReleaseLLVM.html
(or on a better place)
Cheers,
S

yes, it was just to give a bit more visibility to it which looks a bit
outdated btw 
But if you have strong opinion on this, maybe add a new section on this page at the end:

What about something like this, for instance for the last release:

organiztion used or nothing)
