>    * What is your evaluation of the proposal?

+1. These look like good improvements to me. (I'm also happy that the map/filter/reduce naming was left out of this proposal)

One thing I was wonder about was the capitalization of UTF8 in the first example. Shouldn't that be s.withUTF8Buffer(processBytes)instead of s.withUtf8Buffer(processBytes) or am I confusing Swift's conventions with Cocoa's?

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

Yes. Inconsistency at this point in Swifts evolution should be dealt with.

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

Yes. These proposed labels help the call site read better as a sentence.

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

Not applicable

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


Quick reading of the proposal. Followed some of the discussion.
