 Swift 5.0
 ---------
 
+* [SE-0235][]:
+
+  The standard library now contains a `Result` type for manually propagating errors.
+  
+  ```swift
+  enum Result<Success, Failure: Error> {
+      case success(Success)
+      case failure(Failure)
+  }
+  ```
+  
+  This type serves a complementary role to that of throwing functions and initializers. 
+  Use `Result` in situations where automatic error propagation or `try`-`catch` 
+  blocks are undesirable, such as in asynchronous code or when accumulating the 
+  results of successive error-producing operations.
+  
+* `Error` now conforms to itself. This allows for the use of `Error` itself as 
+  the argument for a generic parameter constrained to `Error`.
+
 * Swift 3 mode has been removed. Supported values for the `-swift-version`
   flag are `4`, `4.2`, and `5`.
