None of that stuff points to LLVM being driven by university students. Most of that content is written directly by people paid to work on the project by their employer.
Yet most presentations at LLVM Meetings show otherwise, on the list of authors or collaborators.
Should we go through an agenda?
Sure
Hmm I wonder though if the most canonical was to see who contributes to LLVM is the git blame or the list of presenters at a tenuously related dev conf. Hmmmmmmmmmm.
