Hi,
   Over the course of years I have worked in and managed various 
different hardware and software validation teams.  This is probably a 
good way for me to contribute, since I'm not a compiler back-end guru, 
but I have relevant experience writing and reviewing test plans.  Some 
of those test plans even targeted C compilers :)
