I'm proposing that we deprecate swift:3.0 and get everyone using swift:3.1.1 kind
The default kind for swift is already swift:3.1.1 anyway. What this means if an user opens a bug against swift:3.0 we are going to tell that 3.0 is deprecated and to try in swift:3.1.1 to see if the bug exists in the new runtime, and then look into how to resolve. To migrate from swift:3.0 to swift:3.1.1 if the action uses a single source file then it's matter of updating the kind. If the user is pre-compiling then it needs to pre-compile using the new image as described in the docs https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk/blob/master/docs/actions.md#packaging-an-action-as-a-swift-executable I have a repo with an example that shows side by side, and some scripts to make it easier to migrate if need it https://github.com/csantanapr/openwhisk-swift-upgrade **The actions items to get this done are:** 1. Update the reference docs to tell users to migrate their actions to kind swift:3.1.1 2. After a period (maybe 4 weeks) update manifest in invoker to mark it deprecated, meaning user can only read, update, and delete actions with swift:3.0 not invoke. I also created an issue here: https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk/issues/2897 -- Carlos
