Thanks. The project is still in active early development, so there are still a lot of bugs that need to be worked out. We have a good portion of the core language features covered so far, and are working on adding more.

It looks like you're using built-in collection types in the resulting JavaScript without accounting for the fact that Swift collections are value types, not reference types. Do you plan to address this? There's another third-party Swift implementation out there focusing on Android which does the same thing and buries this drastic language change in the fine print, which is rather unfortunate.

  This is on the radar. The differences between the languages, especially regarding collections, are tricky. For example we're finalizing a data structure to mimic tuples that would allow value lookup by index and/or element name.

    Great! It must be pretty tricky to translate that across without destroying performance and interoperability. I just wanted to check, because the other one seemed to think it was no big deal to leave it this way.
