Building stages with clang
Reddit discussion here.

This Debian sites keeps a nice list of packages that are successfully built with LLVM/Clang.

Graphics stack debugging

 * Screen tearing tests.
 * Debugging variables.
 * Hardware acceleration vs. software acceleration.

Wireless
Be more clear about necessary binary blob firmware for various Wi-Fi chipsets (especially the Intel iwlwifi variants).

Add information on enabling FreeSync on AMDGPU

Resolve PPC bootloader installation instructions
Handbook probably needs to be migrated from yaboot to GRUB2. See discussion on Handbook_Talk:PPC/Installation/Bootloader.

Add networking setup example to the Handbooks using ip command
Transision the Handbook to use the command with CIDR format rather than.

Close all open discussions in the Handbook namespace
As I continue to clean up our docs in 2017, I am rapidly working to close out all open discussions in the Handbook namespace. Will move this section to Completed tasks when finished.

Someone please work on these. Someone. ANYONE?! PLEASE!!

 * GitLab - Clean up article: meld it into proper article layout/formatting according to wiki Guidelines, review for correctness.
 * Work on bringing GitLab to Gentoo. This would be of use to infra as a GitHub fall back (since GitHub isn't nicely open source).
 * Start with a Gentoo-based container (if necessary), and build from there.
