| 28 | + [Swift evolution](https://www.swift.org/swift-evolution) |
| 29 | + process. Submitting this form is not a guarantee that the request will |

| 31 | + removal, or change to the features of the Swift language or the public |
| 32 | + interface of the Swift standard library, please consider socializing it |
| 33 | + on the |
| 34 | + [Swift forums](https://forums.swift.org/c/evolution/discuss) |
