  • Swift 5.8 blog post is out.
    • @james_dempsey We could try to be more consistent with the release announcement process.
  • @mishal_shah: Any feedback on the blog post process?

    • @mishal_shah: We're looking into changing some of the release process and this could be a good opportunity to improve the blog post process.

    • :a: Alexander: Make 5.8 announcement on the forum.
  • @james_dempsey: On adding feature identifiers to the JSON source.
    • @mishal_shah: Reached out to Alex Martini to figure out the timeline.
