+MLIR is a common IR which also supports hardware specific operations. Thus,
 any investment into the infrastructure surrounding MLIR (e.g. the compiler
 passes that work on it) should yield good returns; many targets can use that
 infrastructure and will benefit from it.

 We benefitted from the experience gained building HLO, LLVM and SIL when
 building MLIR. We will directly adopt existing best practices, e.g. writing and
-maintaining an IR spec, building an IR verifier, provide the ability to dump and
