Now that a formal specification of the LKMM has become available to the developer, some concern about how to track changes to the model on the level of the "high-level documentation" was raised. A first "mitigation" to this issue, suggested by Will, is to assign maintainership (and responsibility!!) of such documentation (here, memory-barriers.txt) to the maintainers of the LKMM themselves.
