> 	* What is your evaluation of the proposal?

+1 I’ve always been bothered with the idea of Foundation becoming a first-class cross-platform library while breaking the core principles of Swift promoting value types. I’m extremely happen with this proposal.

> 	* Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a change to Swift?

Yes it is. Foundation is the *foundation* which cross-platform Swift libraries will be built for years to come.

> 	* Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?

It is more consistent with the direction of Swift.

> 	* If you have you used other languages or libraries with a similar feature, how do you feel that this proposal compares to those?

Not really.

> 	* How much effort did you put into your review? A glance, a quick reading, or an in-depth study?

A complete read.
