I’m strongly in favour of the modifications in this proposal. The small API modifications add more consistency and the new version definition APIs are well thought out and approchable for newcomers (compared to cryptic operators). > * Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a change to > the Swift Package Manager? Yes. > * Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift? It would feel even better if Swift provided more customisation of enum cases and we could do away with the factory methods! > * If you have used other languages, libraries, or package managers with a > similar feature, how do you feel that this proposal compares to those? I initially wanted a version definition syntax closer to what I’m used in Bundler, Cocoapods, Carthage, but I ended up liking the more wordy choice that was made in this proposal. > * How much effort did you put into your review?

Read and gave feedback during the discussion period and quick read of the final proposal. > More information about the Swift evolution process is available at > > https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/process.md > > Thank you, > > - Rick Ballard > > Review Manager > _______________________________________________ > swift-evolution mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution
