I guess UIKit/Cocoa would be the "View" part. 2) I like the idea of making String generic over its encoding... Would we need to nail down the hypothetical type promotion system for that to work, or can it all be handled internally? - Dave Sweeris _______________________________________________ swift-evolution mailing list swift-evolution@swift.org https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution
