This. Pretty Ironic (And I opened the source tree, which doesn't have the licence either). Besides, wouldn't the best way to start this sort of thing be to write an LLVM frontend, rather than a new main.c?

I get the impression more time has been spent on the "Launch Site" than the actual "Product".

I think the primary purpose at this point is to try and get Apple to not force the community to divide the development effort like this. They would rather not move forward with this codebase.
