Ongoing projects which need continuous testing.

Task	How	Why
LLVM snapshots	Project:LLVM/Testing_new_LLVM_versions	LLVM is fast-moving and has an interesting support policy for releases. It only supports one release at a time, and only for 5-6 point releases. It's in our interests to report bugs as soon as possible, ideally before a branch is even cut, to reduce problems.
GCC snapshots	Project:Toolchain/sys-devel/gcc#Usage	Project:Toolchain/sys-devel/gcc#Snapshots
GCC assertions	Enable debug for sys-devel/gcc (in package.use, not globally).	This enables additional checking on GCC's compiler output to help find problems like miscompilations. It slows down compile time, however. No effect on runtime (generated code).

Developers may add time-limited tasks here, like e.g. a new GNOME release which is currently package.masked.
