The Apple framework overlays are still owned by their respective teams
at Apple, but Max is the person to contact if you need to make a
change there. Actual /additions/ should still be considered feature
requests that should go to Apple's bug tracker (bugreport.apple.com).
- Tony P. owns the Foundation overlay.
- Daniel S. owns the Dispatch overlay.
- Brian C. owns the XCTest overlay.
(A reminder that ownership of the component does not mean they are the
only qualified reviewer for that component, nor does it necessarily
mean they are the head of the corresponding team at Apple)
(libraries now)
It has been generally agreed that we need to do this reorg, and now
seems like the perfect time. Some major pass reorganization is in the
works.
This does not have to be the final word on the matter. The consensus
among those working on the code is that it's much better than what we
had and a better starting point for future bike shedding.
Note that the previous organization was designed to allow separate
analysis and optimization libraries. It turns out this is an
artificial distinction and not an important goal.
Divide the (mostly) top-level directories of Swift into areas of code
ownership, similarly to what we do in LLVM and Clang. As with LLVM and
Clang, this list will grow and evolve over time.
