[swift-build-dev] Hello SPM

[Eloy Durán]

Hi SPM team,

First of all, major congrats to you and the entire Swift team for your work so far and going public yesterday. I’m very glad to see this all happening in a true OSS way 👏

I’m reaching out on behalf of the CocoaPods team. CocoaPods and the Swift Package Manager will occupy a similar space, and we are now in the process of realigning our roadmap given what we know about the Swift Package Manager.

The Swift Package Manager has had the opportunity to plan its roadmap with knowledge of currently available solutions. We'd welcome a discussion of potential issues where our projects overlap, and together decide what's best for the community.

We already have some questions, but we’ll look into those ourselves first and otherwise send those out as separate emails. We understand you’re probably also very busy in these first few days after the announcement so for now I’ll leave you with best wishes and that we’re looking forward to working together towards best solutions for the community.

Kind regards,
Eloy Durán
