> What is your evaluation of the proposal?
I’m +1 on this.

I believe that it represents a useful cleanup of the Foundation type naming, and a maturation of the Swift/Foundation libraries and the integration thereof. Yes, changes can be expected in the future, but if we live in perpetual fear of what the future might bring then we will advance only slowly toward it. The proposal outlines careful thought into how future additional needed transitions can be accomplished.


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

> 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?
-

> How much effort did you put into your review? A glance, a quick reading, or an in-depth study?
I’ve followed the discussion carefully and carefully read and assessed the proposal.
