<ul>
<li>Swift isn’t a language that should have only a single concept how you solve a problem.</li>
<li>You can still use closed enums for namespaces, but it feels not right. There is no other (better) solution yet, so we’re indeed using enums at the moment.</li>
<li>In Swift 3 we don’t have c for loops anymore, so how do we iterate backwards now? There are <strong>different</strong> solutions, and no one is arguing that we should only have one for that.</li>
<li>We have API design guidelines, but no one would force you to even read it, and your code design is up to you.</li>
<li>A <strong><code>group</code></strong> introduces a new purely additive scoped syntax for organizing code.</li>

<p>Thats not true, this isn’t another extension. First of all a
<code>group</code> is typeless and can be used for sugaring your
code design. <code>Access labels</code> are optional but can be
used in two ways: 1) Namespaces or 2) as a bottleneck label
(<code>scrollView.content.size</code>).</p>
<p>If you’re using a labeled <code>group</code> you’re forced to
use the label to access its typed members.</p>
<p><code>group</code> is for organizing, reducing attributes and
access modifier boiler plate without the need for creating a real
new type.</p>
<p>An <code>extension</code> cannot organize something by access
modifier without an actual type.</p>

<span>Dear Swift community, as most of you may know we’ve been
discussing the future of extintials and diverse design ideas. The
result for Swift 3 is a proposal which makes the first step by
replacing<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><code style="font-family: Menlo, Consolas, 'Liberation Mono', Courier, monospace; font-size: 10pt; border-top-left-radius: 3px; border-top-right-radius: 3px; border-bottom-right-radius: 3px; border-bottom-left-radius: 3px; background-color: rgb(248, 248, 248); color: inherit; border: 1px solid rgb(234, 234, 234); margin: 0px 2px; padding: 0px 5px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: normal; -webkit-margin-before: 0px;" class="">procotol<A, B></code><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>with a new shorthand
syntax<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><code style="font-family: Menlo, Consolas, 'Liberation Mono', Courier, monospace; font-size: 10pt; border-top-left-radius: 3px; border-top-right-radius: 3px; border-bottom-right-radius: 3px; border-bottom-left-radius: 3px; background-color: rgb(248, 248, 248); color: inherit; border: 1px solid rgb(234, 234, 234); margin: 0px 2px; padding: 0px 5px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: normal;" class="">A & B</code>.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 15px 0px;" class="">The reason I’m posting this
proposal so early is to get some feedback about this idea in
general. If the feedback is positive, I also would like some of you
to consider the removal of the access modifier from extensions. By
that I don’t mean to remove it completely. My honest opinion is
that extensions should have exactly the same access control like
classes, enums and structs.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p style="margin: 15px 0px;" class="">One take the access control
from protocols and mix it with the access control of classes (etc.)
and the result is the access control for extensions. I just can’t
agree with the fact of laziness of typing out access modifier on
extension members some of you might have.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<ul style="margin: 15px 0px;" class="">
<li style="margin: 15px 0px; -webkit-margin-before: 0px;" class="">
<p style="margin: 15px 0px; -webkit-margin-before: 0px;" class="">
The current access control on extensions disallow us to use access
modifier when we involve protocol conformances.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
</li>
<li style="margin: 15px 0px;" class="">
<p style="margin: 15px 0px; -webkit-margin-before: 0px;" class="">
Default implementations have three ways of declaring public
visibility:</p>

public func someMember() {}
}
public extension SomeProtocol {
func someMember() {}
}
public extension SomeProtocol {
public func someMember() {}
}
</code></pre>
<p style="margin: 15px 0px;" class="">If it was the access control
mechanism for classes (etc.) there would be only a single correct
way to achieve this:</p>

<p style="margin: 15px 0px;" class="">I’d like to introduce a new
