+Likely
+------
+
+`Likely <http://www.liblikely.org>`_ is an embeddable just-in-time Lisp for
+image recognition and heterogenous computing. Algorithms are just-in-time
+compiled using LLVM's MCJIT infrastructure to execute on single or
+multi-threaded CPUs and potentially OpenCL SPIR or CUDA enabled GPUs.
+Likely seeks to explore new optimizations for statistical learning
+algorithms by moving them from an offline model generation step to the
+compile-time evaluation of a function (the learning algorithm) with constant
+arguments (the training data).
+
+LDC - the LLVM-based D compiler
+-------------------------------
+
+`D <http://dlang.org>`_ is a language with C-like syntax and static typing. It
+pragmatically combines efficiency, control, and modeling power, with safety and
+programmer productivity. D supports powerful concepts like Compile-Time Function
+Execution (CTFE) and Template Meta-Programming, provides an innovative approach
+to concurrency and offers many classical paradigms.
+
+`LDC <http://wiki.dlang.org/LDC>`_ uses the frontend from the reference compiler
+combined with LLVM as backend to produce efficient native code. LDC targets
+x86/x86_64 systems like Linux, OS X, FreeBSD and Windows and also Linux on
+PowerPC (32/64 bit). Ports to other architectures like ARM, AArch64 and MIPS64
+are underway.

The LLVM compiler infrastructure supports a wide range of projects, from
industrial strength compilers to specialized JIT applications to small
research projects.
