Almost all the feedback we received was positive, and the Core Team is convinced that this is a great incremental step forward. Some excellent points on possible concern over future tech debt in the compiler and runtime were brought up, but the Core Team believes that it is manageable and that this proposal helps push Swift forward in a positive direction.
Question, I donât mean to be a bother, but I read that if proposals are not implemented within a year, they are no longer accepted, and itâs been over a yearâŚor has the guidance changed?
The standing rule, I believe, is that if proposals are not implemented within 1 year of acceptance, they revert to âunreviewedâ and must go through evolution again. Unless this has changed?
Hello @Joe_Groff@Alejandro@tkremenek the implementation PR for this proposal was merged and then reverted in 2020 and then a draft PR appeared again in 2021, do you know if it had been reimplemented or? Sorry for the nudge, but is there any update please?
This feature is particularly complicated to implement completely. Some foundational bits in the compiler and runtime are improving and would make it easier, but there is no update on when it will be fully implemented.
