This showed up on the sidebar of Google News today:

I have my browser set to to delete or prevent cookies and other trackers, so
either Google has found a way around this or this is considered general news.

This link was also posted a few days ago on Hacker News: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20930652
So I would say general news :)

As quoted from the article:
“An LLVM-based toolchain is also in the works, currently using the DragonEgg project.”
This quotation indicates that this article was written multiple years ago, back before DragonEgg was aborted. Does anyone know from whence the original article came years ago (to be resurrected as copy-pasta in 2019)?

I think AdaCore is actively working on a GNAT front-end for LLVM.
