Perhaps my concern is a higher level - I don’t understand where Foundation is envisioned going. >From my perspective, Foundation is highly coupled to Apple platforms and >Objective-C on one side, and part of the Swift standard library on the other. >Perhaps long-term Foundation should be split into two new things - a core >library for cross-platform swift development, and the infrastructure for >Objective-C interoperability on apple platforms only. -DW
