>    * What is your evaluation of the proposal?

+1 This proposal makes the package manager a first-class tool, instead of a set of command options.

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

It should be addressed before it goes public.

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

Yes.

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

I'm used to using npm, pod, gem, bundle. So I think I would have preferred a spm command. It would also have made commands shorter to type. But I guess the proposal makes more sense for Swift.

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

Serious read.
