For a formative language, it would be wise for Apple to send a representative and for dotSwift to get Apple officially represented. I am sure the organizers understand this, but this would also mean a cultural departure for Apple.
- sylvinus 12y agoCouldn't agree more! We really hope to be able to get them involved in the conference. FYI, Chris Lattner does speak at LLVM community events so it's not unheard of.

Plus, watching a HD video shot in a Theater like ours is arguably more enjoyable and impactful than something shot in a studio.
