Phoronix: F18/FLANG Merged Into LLVM 11 Codebase As Modern Fortran Compiler

Following a number of setbacks over recent months, the modern Fortran "f18" compiler front-end to LLVM has been upstreamed under the FLANG branding...

Unless I am misunderstanding the current situation, I believe only the flang compiler, but not the fortran runtime library code, has been committed.

Well, presumably the runtime library will follow shortly, otherwise the whole thing wouldn't be particularly useful.

Typo:

The code originally developed under the the f18 compiler

Thanks. That confirmed my suspicions that llvm was rewriting the runtime library from scratch rather than reusing the previous copy that the prior flang project used.
