Yes indeed, I don't blame Chris for any of this. Given his pedigree with LLVM, I'd believe that if he had his way Swift would have been open and available for comment from day one. I squarely blame Apple's management, a misapplied corporate culture of extreme secrecy, and an executive allergy to the word "beta" for the issues that I perceive. I apologize if it seemed that I was blaming the Swift developers themselves or denigrating their abilities.
