Yesterday Apple announced the Swift language.
Personally, I've never liked Objective C so it's definitely a step up -
and as a Java developer I have to admit Swift definitely looks good!
Any thoughts, observations, etc.?

Thanks Cedric this is a nice summary / first look at the language!
I notice the language features something they call Automatic Reference
Counting. Is this the same as a Garbage Collector?

Of course most of these items can be mitigated in a way or another.
Most importantly, and as Joe pointed out, “open” does not necessarily
mean “better”!

How about saying f*ck to backwards compatibility? New projects use the
new (new) reified collections, and old code stays with the current
erasure system. And old and new code don't talk to each other. I could
