>"Saleem Abdulrasool is the release manager for the Windows platform (@compnerd), is a prolific contributor to the Swift project and the primary instigator behind the port of Swift to Windows." Saleem's github, https://github.com/compnerd https://github.com/compnerd, lists swift-win32 repo, which is a "a thin wrapper over the Win32 APIs for graphics on Windows." So it's one person wrapping Win32. Not too promising yet, but it's early and there's room for Windows programmers to get involved.
Amazing work by Saleem and the team at The Browser Company to devote years to this and make it a success.
