Hi Ted-
I mocked up an example of the readme.md file:
https://github.com/tachoknight/swift-readme-example/blob/master/Swift%20Programming%20Language.md
I guessed at the Swift For Windows version based on the last build date;
I imagine the protocol for getting a link added to the list would
require the version of Swift being provided, regardless of the version
of the project; Swift for Windows self-versions 1.6, which doesn't
indicate what actual version of Swift they're using.
Presumably those projects that support the CI bots could get the badges;
I didn't want to adhere too closely to the original platform table
without considering all the ramifications so I didn't include them.

Hi Ron,
This is a great question.
We’re actively setting up support to wire in up externally hosted CI
bots to our CI infrastructure so that the community can help support
the bringup and testing of Swift on other platforms beyond the
officially supported platforms. The tentative rollout for that was
December. We’ll announce more details once we get closer to
rollout.
With that in mind, we’d definitely be interested in highlighting
platforms that are being brought up, especially those actively tested
in CI, prominently on Swift.org <http://swift.org/>. I’m also
interested in highlighting other bring-up efforts as well (say those
without CI testing), although possibly with much less emphasis. The
nice thing about projects that are being actively tested during
development is that it provides a transparent read to the community on
how actively maintained that platform actually is.
That said, do you have specific ideas on how such efforts should be
highlighted on swift.org <http://swift.org/>, and what should be the
optics?
Thanks,
Ted

Hi all-
Apologies in advance if this has been discussed and I missed it, but
I was wondering if there'd be any possibility of including an
'Unsupported/User contributed/Not Endorsed/etc.' section under
'Supported Platforms' to link to projects working to bring Swift to
other platforms (e.g. Fedora, Windows, etc.).
Disclosure: I've been working to keep Corinne Krych's original RPM
build for Swift up to date at
https://github.com/tachoknight/swift-rpm (currently at 4.0, testing
4.0.2).
Ron
