Now in Swift 3 that is all changing (for the better), and I plan to deprecate my library, but there is one semantic that takes advantage of the Swift guidelines that the new Swift 3.0 Foundation in Xcode 8 doesn’t. UUID seems a natural candidate for conforming to RawRepresentable. Please check out the link below, and you can see how it naturally fits.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><a href="https://github.com/PureSwift/SwiftFoundation/blob/develop/Sources/SwiftFoundation/UUID.swift" class="">https://github.com/PureSwift/SwiftFoundation/blob/develop/Sources/SwiftFoundation/UUID.swift</a><br class=""><div class="">
