Hi Ankit,

Our intention is to share as much of the implementation as possible. There are 
some details that need to be worked out around bridging of types like NSNumber 
(since bridging doesn't exist on Linux we may need to avoid using 'as' in a few 
places), but in general it could be as easy as copying the files from the 
Foundation overlay on Darwin into the other project.

We've been focused on getting the last details in place so haven't been able to 
pursue the rest of this ourselves. If anyone wanted to step up and help us out 
here, it would be awesome to ship the feature concurrently on Linux. 

- Tony
