 |  | 
 | Forums & Mailing Lists | 
 | ---------------------- | 
 |  | 
 | If you can't find what you need in these docs, try consulting the | 
 | Discourse forums. There are also commit mailing lists for all commits to the LLVM Project. | 
 | The :doc:`CodeOfConduct` applies to all these forums and mailing lists. | 
 |  | 
 | `LLVM Discourse`__ | 
 |   The forums for all things LLVM and related sub-projects. There are categories and subcategories for a wide variety of areas within LLVM. You can also view tags or search for a specific topic. | 
 |  | 
 |   .. __: https://discourse.llvm.org/ | 
 |  | 
 | `Commits Archive (llvm-commits)`__ | 
 |   This list contains all commit messages that are made when LLVM developers | 
 |   commit code changes to the repository. It also serves as a forum for | 
 |   patch review (i.e. send patches here). It is useful for those who want to | 
 |   stay on the bleeding edge of LLVM development. This list is very high | 
 |   volume. | 
 |  | 
 |   .. __: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/ | 
 |  | 
 | `Bugs & Patches Archive (llvm-bugs)`__ | 
 |   This list gets emailed every time a bug is opened and closed. It is | 
 |   higher volume than the LLVM-dev list. | 
 |  | 
 |   .. __: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-bugs/ | 
 |  | 
 | `LLVM Announcements`__ | 
 |   If you just want project wide announcements such as releases, developers meetings, or blog posts, then you should check out the Announcement category on LLVM Discourse. | 
 |  | 
 |   .. __: https://discourse.llvm.org/c/announce/46 | 
 |  | 
 | .. _online-sync-ups: | 
 |  | 
 | Online Sync-Ups | 
 | --------------- | 
 |  | 
 | A number of regular calls are organized on specific topics. It should be | 
 | expected that the range of topics will change over time. At the time of | 
 | writing, the following sync-ups are organized. | 
 | The :doc:`CodeOfConduct` applies to all online sync-ups. | 
 |  | 
 | If you'd like to organize a new sync-up, please add the info in the table | 
 | below. Please also create a calendar event for it and invite calendar@llvm.org | 
 | to the event, so that it'll show up on the :ref:`llvm-community-calendar`. | 
 | Please see :ref:`llvm-community-calendar-host-guidance` for more guidance on | 
 | what to add to your calendar invite. |

 | For event owners, our Discord bot also supports sending automated announcements | 
 | of upcoming office hours. Please see the :ref:`discord-bot-event-pings` section | 
 | for info. | 
 |  | 
 | Guidance for office hours hosts | 
 | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ | 
 |  | 
 | * If you're interested in becoming an office hours host, please add your | 
 |   information to the list above. Please create a calendar event for it and | 
 |   invite calendar@llvm.org to the event so that it'll show up on the | 
 |   :ref:`llvm-community-calendar`. | 
 |   Please see :ref:`llvm-community-calendar-host-guidance` for more guidance on | 
 |   what to add to your calendar invite. | 
 | * When starting an office hours session, if you haven't set up the Discord bot | 
 |   integration, consider typing something like "*Hi, I'm available for chats in | 
 |   the next half hour at* video chat URL. *I'm looking forward to having | 
 |   conversations on the video chat or here.*" on the | 
 |   `#office-hours Discord channel <https://discord.com/channels/636084430946959380/976196303681896538>`__. | 
 |  | 
 |   Doing this can help: | 
 |     * overcome potential anxiety to call in for a first time, | 
 |     * people who prefer to first exchange a few messages through text chat | 
 |       before dialing in, and | 
 |     * remind the wider community that office hours do exist. | 
 | * If you decide to no longer host office hours, please do remove your entry | 
 |   from the list above. | 
 |  | 
 |  | 
 | Discord | 
 | ------- | 
 |  | 
 | Users and developers of the LLVM project (including subprojects such as Clang) | 
 | can be found on the community's `Discord <https://discord.gg/xS7Z362>`_ | 
 | chat server. The server is actively moderated. | 
 |  | 
 | The #buildbot-status channel has a bot for | 
 | `LLVM buildbot <http://lab.llvm.org/buildbot/#/console>`_ status changes. The | 
 | bot will update the channel with a link to a build bot when a build goes from | 
 | passing to failing and again when the build goes from failing back to passing. | 
 | It is a great way to actively monitor the status of the build. | 
 |  | 
 | The bot also supports @mention-ing you when your email appears on a blamelist. | 
 | For more details, DM ``help`` to the bot. | 
 |  | 
 | .. _discord-bot-event-pings: | 
 |  | 
 | Discord bot event pings | 
 | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ | 
 |  | 
 | Our Discord bot supports automatically sending messages about upcoming events | 
 | on `the LLVM community calendar <https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/embed?src=calendar@llvm.org>`_ | 
 | to Discord. This behavior is controlled on a per-event basis, by metadata in the | 
 | event's description. Each piece of metadata should be on its own line in the | 
 | event description. | 
 |  | 
 | The currently supported metadata is: | 
 |  | 
 | - ``discord-bot-event-type`` - **Required**. Specifies the event type. Valid | 
 |   values are ``office-hours`` and ``sync-up``. | 
 | - ``discord-bot-channels-to-mention`` - **Sometimes required**. A | 
 |   comma-separated list of Discord channels to post notifications in. If your | 
 |   ``discord-bot-event-type`` is ``office-hours``, the ``#office-hours`` channel | 
 |   will be implicitly appended to this list (ergo, you don't need to specify this | 
 |   item). Otherwise, you must specify a value here. | 
 | - ``discord-bot-mention`` - **Optional**. A comma-separated list of people to | 
 |   ping on each event notification. All names mentioned must be Discord | 
 |   usernames, and must have a leading ``@``. e.g., ``@foo, @bar``. | 
 | - ``discord-bot-reminder-time-before-start`` - **Optional**. The number of | 
 |   minutes before the beginning of an event to send a ping. This should be | 
 |   formatted as an integer. Defaults to 30. | 
 | - ``discord-bot-message`` - **Optional**. Text to append to all event pings. | 
 |  | 
 | An example of an event description with valid metadata is:: | 
 |  | 
 |   Regular office hours to chat with people about LLVM! We can help with | 
 |   questions, troubleshooting bugs, etc. | 
 |  | 
 |   discord-bot-channels-to-mention: #beginners, #foo | 
 |   discord-bot-event-type: office-hours | 
 |   discord-bot-mention: @gburgessiv, @bar | 
 |   discord-bot-message: Come join us for office hours! | 
 |   discord-bot-reminder-time-before-start: 5 | 
 |  | 
 | This metadata will prompt the Discord bot to: | 
 |  | 
 | * send pings 5 minutes before the given event starts, mentioning ``@gburgessiv`` | 
 |   and ``@bar`` in the ping | 
 | * send the pings to the ``#beginners``, ``#foo``, and ``#office-hours`` channels | 
 | * include the text "Come join us for office hours!" in the ping | 
 |  | 
 | A few minutes before sending a ping, the bot will double-check that the event | 
 | hasn't been cancelled. | 
 |  | 
 | If you need help troubleshooting, or have feature requests/questions, please | 
 | feel free to ping @gburgessiv! |

 |  | 
 | LLVM community calendar | 
 | ----------------------- | 
 |  | 
 | We aim to maintain a public calendar view of all events happening in the LLVM | 
 | community such as :ref:`online-sync-ups` and :ref:`office-hours`. The calendar | 
 | can be found at | 
 | https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/embed?src=calendar@llvm.org and can | 
 | also be seen inline below: |

 |  | 
 | Note that the web view of the LLVM community calendar shows events in | 
 | Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). If you use Google Calendar, consider | 
 | subscribing to it with the + button in the bottom-right corner to view all |

 |  | 
 | Guidance on what to put into LLVM community calendar invites | 
 | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ | 
 |  | 
 | To add your event, create a calendar event for it and invite calendar@llvm.org | 
 | on it. Your event should then show up on the community calendar. | 
 |  | 
 | Please put the following pieces of information in your calendar invite: | 
 |  | 
 | * Write a single paragraph describing what the event is about. Include things | 
 |   such as who the event is for and what sort of topics are discussed. | 
 | * State explicitly that the :doc:`CodeOfConduct` applies to this event. | 
 | * Make it clear who: | 
 |  | 
 |   * the organizer is. | 
 |  | 
 |   * the person to contact is in case of any code-of-conduct issues.  Typically, | 
 |     this would be the organizer. | 
 |  | 
 | * If you have meeting minutes for your event, add a pointer to where those live. | 
 |   A good place for meeting minutes could be as a post on LLVM Discourse. | 
 |  | 
 | * If you're hosting a sync-up or office hours event and would like it to be | 
 |   announced by the Discord bot, add the relevant metadata (full descriptions | 
 |   available in the :ref:`discord-bot-event-pings` section). | 
 |  | 
 | An example invite looks as follows | 
 |  | 
 | .. code-block:: none | 
 |  | 
 |   This event is a meetup for all developers of LLDB. Meeting agendas are posted | 
 |   on discourse before the event. | 
 |  | 
 |   Attendees are required to adhere to the LLVM Code of Conduct | 
 |   (https://llvm.org/docs/CodeOfConduct.html). For any Code of Conduct reports, | 
 |   please contact the organizers, and also email conduct@llvm.org. |
