The last issue mentioned the -Ounchecked thread but the discussion is now centered on whether command-line Swift options need to go through swift-evolution in some cases. It's an interesting topic that I think I'll expand on in this issue. (Just for convenience, here's a link to one message in the mailing list thread: https://lists.swift.org/pipermail/swift-dev/Week-of-Mon-20171113/005944.html)

Published. Thanks everybody! I pushed a draft for issue 96, which according to #323 is next next week. I assume it'll be written by @jessesquires...? Here are the notes for that issue: #338.
