Hi Henri!
Thanks for your response. I was about to rewrite the email adhering to what I've since picked up on is the subject formatting standards around here.
I am referring to support for reading DXIL bytecode in libvkd3d-shader. My new subject line was to be "[RFC] vkd3d-shader: Adding DXIL support".
The reason I wanted to ask permission was to make sure I wasn't duplicating effort of someone else. This is on the todo list so it seemed possible someone else was working on it. Additionally, I was concerned my exposure to Microsoft code, albeit Microsoft code built on top of LLVM code under the University of Illinois License might make my contributions unacceptable. If none of that is the case, I'll happily continue to forge away at this and I'll give you an update when I have something I think is ready to be committed.
Thanks!
Greg

I'd like to add support for the new Direct X shader bitcode format, DXIL

You of course don't need our permission to work on this, but in case it helps, I'm not aware of anyone else currently working on adding DXIL support. Józef and I did (privately) discuss the topic a while ago, but it didn't end up being enough of a priority to start concrete work on it. Just so we're clear though, when you say "DXIL support", I'm assuming you're referring to support for reading DXIL bytecode in libvkd3d-shader, correct? In any case, we'd welcome the help.
