It isn't up to the owner of ADT to decide whether this needs to be
reverted. All I can do in that capacity is help you find a reviewer.

The community as a whole gets to say whether it needs to be reverted, and I
think Philip has made a clear point here (which I completely agree with)
and so I think you should probably revert. =]

How do we know whether any other contributor to Swift authored some of the
code in this file? Does Apple get copyright assignment for all Swift
contributions? Only if Apple has copyright assignment for all contributions
to Swift or only people from Apple have every contributed to this part of
Swift is asking internally enough.

And since this is an open source project, it would seem polite (even if not
necessary) to also ask the community rather than just asking internally. We
don't all work at Apple. =/
