Just a few things I noticed going through the doc Tobias pointed me at. I also had a couple of other questions/observations.

  1. I noticed http://prereleases-origin.llvm.org is updated a bit inconsistently and hasn't been updated since Feb 24, is this step still necessary?
    access must login to prereleases-origin.llvm.org and manually pull the new
  2. branch, updating documentation that refers to the release, and updating the
    demo page.
    - what's the demo page? Also I think it'd be helpful to expand on what docs need updating.

Happy to fix these if you can give me some pointers.
