Addendum: The Swift Blog [apple.com] has been updated with information about new features and the open source efforts.

Swift source code will be released under an OSI-approved permissive license.

Contributions from the community will be accepted — and encouraged.

At launch we intend to contribute ports for OS X, iOS, and Linux.

Source code will include the Swift compiler and standard library.

We think it would be amazing for Swift to be on all your favorite platforms.
