[cfe-dev] [LLVMdev] Developer meeting videos up

[Kenneth Uildriks]

I've never heard of anyone forbidding their workers to distribute
videos of their non-secret-revealing talks.  Most tech companies want
to broadcast far and wide the talent of their people, and having them
give public talks and publicly distribute videos of same seems like a
good way to do that.

>> Meeting.  Several Apple employees now have a leadership role in the
>> LLVM community, although LLVM remains a widely used open source
>> software project.  Their presentations at the LLVM developers' meeting
>> are an important component of how we help support LLVM users.  The
>> presentations clearly reveal no confidential Apple information; in
>> fact, they were presented in front of a large number of external
>> participants.  While we appreciate Apple's continued support of LLVM
>> and of the Developers' Meeting, the goodwill generated is being
>> undermined by this policy to withhold important technical information
>> from other LLVM users, and for little benefit to Apple.
