+<li><b>Use clang libraries to implement better versions of existing tools</b>:\r
+Clang is built as a set of libraries, which means that it is possible to\r
+implement capabilities similar to other source language tools, improving them\r
+in various ways. Two examples are <a href="http://distcc.samba.org/">distcc</a>\r
+and the <a href="http://delta.tigris.org/">delta testcase reduction tool</a>.\r
+The former can be improved to scale better and be more efficient. The later\r
+could also be faster and more efficient at reducing C-family programs if built\r
+on the clang preprocessor.</li>\r

<p>If you hit a bug with clang, it is very useful for us if you reduce the code\r
that demonstrates the problem down to something small. There are many ways to\r
do this; ask on cfe-dev for advice.</p>\r
