if Calendar.current.identifier == .gregorian {
print("Happy new year! ")
}
I would like to propose that the MapKit framework functions be updated to conform to the Swift API Design Guidelines.
For example, this is how you would currently determine if the user is currently within the visible map view:
let userPoint = MKMapPointForCoordinate(mapView.userLocation.coordinate)
let mapRect = mapView.visibleMapRect
let inside = MKMapRectContainsPoint(mapRect, userPoint)
This should be more easily accomplished, such as by doing this:
let userPoint = mapView.userLocation.coordinate.mapPoint
let inside = mapView.visibleMapRect.contains(userPoint)
I realize that this proposal is out of scope for Swift 4. So I will develop it for consideration in a future release, and keep it updated on my fork until it’s ready to submit. All feedback welcomed and appreciated.
MapKit is not part of the Swift standard library; as such, it would probably be better if you used Apple’s Bug Reporter to let them know.

Swift-evolution is for talking about the core language and its standard libraries (String, Array, Optional, etc), not high level frameworks like MapKit. For that, you'll want to file a Radar at Feedback Assistant.

Realized that after sending. I'll file a radar. Thanks!
