The best part is that the documentation is actually a header file licensed under MIT.

This probably relates to MS adding clang support to Visual Studio. - Jonathan M Davis

Good guess. From the repo description: "Just trying to help the CLANG/LLVM community get onto Windows."

Great, hopefully Walter's article about reverse-engineering it, people like Manu prodding the issue, and maybe even rants like mine helped finally effect this change: http://forum.dlang.org/post/ldnycluruxawrgdergta forum.dlang.org

Well, they finally added CodeView support to llvm, good to see them coming around: http://phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Microsoft-Adds-LLVM-CodeView Somebody should probably check the work Walter put in to reverse-engineer CV and add support to dmd. Not Walter, since he won't look at outside code for legal reasons.
