Personally I’d prefer Metatype<T> and AnyMetatype<T> to get rid of the restriction where you mostly cannot create custom types called Type, which annoys me a lot. Sometimes Kind as a good workaround but there are times where Kind doesn’t fit. :/

But I’d suggest to do it separately and for now, try to push the main proposal for review. 2017-02-17 19:09 GMT+03:00 Adrian Zubarev <adrian.zuba...@devandartist.com>: Personally I’d like a shortcut like AnyType, but it won’t work as a typealias, because it will create a circle reference between AnyType and AnyType<T>. However, there is a small possibility that this type might be generalized like Any (now possibly AnyObject) directly into the language. That would probably allow us to use AnyType as a shortcut to AnyType<Any>. I’m not sure if this should be part of our proposal or not. I’d like to have some more feedback from the core team on this one.
