Interesting discussion on Cranelift in the most recent Coffee Compiler Club: YouTube - Coffee Compiler Club, 2022_12_30

Very much focused on documentation, or the lack of some times of documentation, and a perception of immaturity. I think the point towards the end of the segment regarding implementation status docs for the IR is interesting, and might be somewhat low-hanging fruit

also some misconceptions of the structure of the BA and how projects are backed, which clearly indicates we need to communicate more on that

one of the panelists asked some questions here, but has since deactivated their account

Overall, pretty fair. We haven't invested in guide-level docs for Cranelift. It would be great to have.

Regarding BA messaging: not sure how to do better on this front. The BA website's home page is like 90% company logos. Don't know how to make it more obvious that it is an umbrella for collaboration than that...
