Levi,
Why do you need to block Dmitry's return type nullable RFC ?
We need to move forward, that has an implementation, ready for a long
time, doesn't seem to block nullable parameter types rfc, either separately
or as part of unions.
So, I'm not understanding why you need to hold up Dmitry any more.
Please, explain.
Cheers
Joe
