As Swift can use existing ObjC libraries there might be some kind of translation table for method names, and if that exists this could be used by PyObjC as well to provide nicer names in Python code (instead of the ugly names we have to use now). > > A possible challenge is the runtime model of Swift: I have no idea if Swift has, or will have, runtime introspection possibilities that could be used in the future to expose Swift libraries to Python code. I am not sure whether you have seen Evan Swick’s Swift article: http://www.eswick.com/2014/06/inside-swift/ Maybe I understood that wrong, but to me it sounds rather disappointing from a PyObjC-perspective. Do you draw different conclusions?
