One small thing: > Any<> should be typealiased to Any. I'm not sure if it's better to specify that this should be a typealias, or simply that `Any` without angle brackets is equivalent to `Any<>`. I worry a little about whether Swift might have trouble parsing `Any<Foo>` if there's an `Any` typealias lying around. -- Brent Royal-Gordon Architechies _______________________________________________ swift-evolution mailing list [email protected] https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution
