Hi Ramsey, My plan is to deprecate Spans and move everybody over to Intervals, which are better defined and easier to extend. We should be more or less at feature parity now, so if there are things that you can’t do in Intervals that you can in Spans, please open issues for them and I will try and get things implemented.
