[swift-dev] Is SE-0138 UnsafeRawBufferPointer included in Xcode 8 beta 3?

[ematejska at apple.com]

Hi,

On behalf of Apple..

This is an error in the release notes.   You’re not missing anything and Swift in Xcode 8.1 beta 2 is the same as Xcode 8.1 beta 3.  Sorry for the confusion and we’ll get the release notes fixed up.

Thanks,
Ewa
